A sonic boom is created by a shock wave when an object travels faster than the the speed of sound, or mach1. If the object does not achieve mach1 then there will be no sonic boom.

What are subsonic signals?
Subsonic signals are sounds or vibrations that have a frequency lower than that which may be heard by the human ear as a discernable tone. Vibrations lower than 30 Hz (30 cycles per second) are considered subsonic.
What's difference between subsonic and supersonic?
Subsonic is below or slower than the speed of sound, and supersonic is above or faster than the speed of sound.

Why doesn't a subsonic aircraft produce a sonic boom?
A subsonic aircraft doesn't produce a sonic boom because it is subsonic, and cannot produce enough speed to do so. A sonic boom is created when an aircraft becomes supersonic, accelerating past the speed of sound. Since it is traveling near the speed of sound at this time, the sound waves build up around it, finally traveling through the air as it is left behind by the aircraft.
What Sound waves below 20 waves per second called?
They're called "subsonic".That makes sense. "Sub" means "under", and "sonic" refers to "sound"."Subsonic" waves are those with frequencies lower than sounds audibleto the human ear.
What is a termination shock region?
The Shock Front, also known as the Termination Shock is the area of space that surrounds the sun at a distance of approximately 80 to 100 Astronomical Units at which the solar wind slows from supersonic to subsonic speeds. This boundary is contained within the heliosphere.
What is the antonym for the word subsonic?
The antonym for subsonic is supersonic.
What has the author Anthony Okay Odukwe written?
Anthony Okay Odukwe has written: 'Performance of subsonic conical diffusers including the effects of preceding normal shock boundary layer interaction'
What is Subsonic Bullet?
Subsonic means "slower than the speed of sound" so a subsonic bullet is any bullet that travels slower than the speed of sound.
When was Subsonic - media server - created?
Subsonic - media server - was created on 2005-02-10.
What is subsonic airflow?
lmfao
What is the opposite of subsonic?
Supersonic
What is the difference between transonic and subsonic speeds?
Transonic being past the speed of sound and subsonic is below the speed of sound.
What are the effects on the air flowing over aerodynamic surfaces when travelling at subsonic and supersonic speeds?
At subsonic speeds air acts like a fluid and Bernoulli's principals apply, at supersonic speeds, air acts like a gas (it's compressed). At subsonic speed, air speed increases with a decrease in area and vice versa. Above the sound barrier, air speed decreases with a decrease in area. This does not seem logical or intuitive. As the subsonice air flow through test chamber at near speed of sound and the area decreases at the nozzle, the airflow increases and a shock wave developes. Aft of the shock wave, the air is now supersonic. Then as the nozzle opens wider, the flow continues to increase in speed until a time when the pressure is insufficient to support the flow---then another shock waves developes as the flow drops back to sub-sonic.
What is the difference between subsonic and super sonic?
subsonic is moving below the speed of sound, supersonic is faster than speed of sound
What are subsonic signals?
Subsonic signals are sounds or vibrations that have a frequency lower than that which may be heard by the human ear as a discernable tone. Vibrations lower than 30 Hz (30 cycles per second) are considered subsonic.
What color is the Subsonic submarine's periscope?
