An
introduction to sound barriers should be the ideal way for starting
this blog; however the name itself gives all of us a fair idea of
what exactly it is. For a spud gun to break the sound barrier it has
to be extremely powerful or structured around a custom design.
You
will find that the spud guns that are popular are of a hybrid genre
and on the contrary the rule of exception is applicable here as well.
There are some pneumatic spud cannons that are at par with the ones
aforementioned.
The
usage of a special, low-density gas like helium has made it possible
for these guns to break the sound barrier. Sometimes you will notice
that an amalgamation of high pressure with fast valve will yield out
the same consequences.
The
sound barrier exists because the speed of the particles within the
gas is not enough to break it. You will find that in order to
provide relevant amount of acceleration force, the speed of the
particles in escalated by several different ways. The above mentioned
instance of the usage of helium is one such method by which it is
accomplished.
