A sonic boom is the sound associated with the shock waves created whenever an object travelling through the air travels faster than the speed of sound. Sonic booms generate enormous amounts of sound energy, sounding similar to an explosion or a thunderclap to the human ear. The crack of a supersonic bullet passing overhead or the crack of a bullwhip are examples of a sonic boom in miniature.

Answer:

Sonic boom:

When the speed of any object exceeds the speed of sound it is said to be travelling at supersonic speed. Bullets, jer aircrafts etc. often travel at superson speeds. When a sound, producing source moves with a speed higher than that of sound, it produces shock waves in air. These shock waves carry a large amount of energy. The air pressure variation associated with this type of shock waves produces a very sharp and loud sound called the "sonic boom".The shock waves produced by a supersonic aircraft have enough energy to shatter window glass and even damage buildings.
