Supersónico

The video explains the speed of sound in air at sea level, which is about 1236 km/h. It discusses how objects moving faster than this speed are considered supersonic. Supersonic aircraft, while capable of high speeds, are less efficient and more complex to operate than subsonic aircraft. Their use is primarily restricted to military applications due to these factors.
