Pretty interesting. It appears that one jet could produce as many separate booms as was heard. Found the following on a aeronautics website:
Why is it that the sonic boom only occurs at the moment the plane crosses Mach 1?
The answer is: It doesn't. Sonic boom first occurs when the plane crosses Mach 1 and the plane continues producing sonic boom as long as the speed stays above Mach 1.
Another part of your question is:
How come sonic booms only occur once?
And the answer is: because the plane flew over you once. If the plane were to turn around and fly over you a second time you'd hear two sonic booms.
When you hear a sonic boom it doesn't mean that that boom was generated at Mach 1. It only means that the boom was generated at speeds equal to or greater than Mach 1. For example, a plane travelling at Mach 3 would still produce a sonic boom but you'd still only hear it once because the “boom” would only reach your ear once.
To understand this you need to understand what a sonic boom is.
Various parts of the airplane generate sound. Form the roar of the jet engines to the whistle of the skin of the aircraft moving through the air.
When travelling at normal subsonic speed. These sounds travel normally through the air and what you hear is a continuous sound of an airplane flying.
When travelling at or faster than the speed of sound, all these sounds arrive at your ear simultaneously. That is to say, if normally you'd be able to hear a plane passing overhead over a period of 10 seconds (for example) then at supersonic speeds all those 10 seconds of sounds (engine roar, woosh of the wings etc.) arrive at your ear at the same moment.
Since all the sounds you'd ever hear from the airplane arrive at the same time, the result is a very loud boom (all the 10 seconds or more of sound added together).
That's why you only hear it once typically.
There are exceptions though. If the plane is long enough, and the nose and tail generate loud sounds, it is possible to experience a double sonic boom caused by the tail generating a second boom. But generally, even a very long plane like the 747 or A380 (or Concorde) would take only a very tiny fraction of a second to travel the length of their body at supersonic speeds. You'd probably need a plane a mile long to experience a proper double boom.
I received more of my money from wages over the course of the year because of Trump’s tax plan. Still got a small refund but overall paid 3000 less in federal taxes. And I live in California with property taxes and interest beyond the limit.
The winds had as much to do with it as the brush and other fuel. It was like standing behind a 747 on takeoff, according to my sources who were in the middle of it.
Just met my wife and her mom in Oroville after they barely escaped the fire on Pentz Rd. Passed at least one hundred fire rigs heading up to Paradise as we headed home to the Bay Area.
