1) nice sig
2) i cant imagine flying a jet at mach 9.5, youd have to have another pump like the heart to avoid blacking out, assuming you can take 1.7-2 pressing on your chest. its a cool idea tho
I asked the exact same question, my dad clarified. The next day when we got in the car my dad pulled out of the drive way and floored it! When he first stepped on the gas pedal i felt my stomach lurched. He had accelerated from 15 to 65 MPH but as soon as we had setteld at 65 i felt nothing. The only time pilots feel like blacking out is either when they acclerate or when the pull a G-manuever like a sudden plunge. Once the sudden accelation stops you'd feel normal. So 9.5 is very plausible
yea but how gradually will you be getting to 9.5 times the speed of sound (3183 m/s). if you did it at the speed of a car accelerating, you mightve just orbited the earth twice lol. at higher speeds, the acceleration is greater (correct me if im wrong, im quoteing my old physics teacher) so if you were at 3000m/s and started accelerating at 3m/s to 3183 m/s the forces on you would be so great that it would be like going from 0 to the speed of sound in a second
for this m = meters, not miles
Not that it matters but your teacher is a retard, and you can tell him that a specialest photonics physicist said so. A mere acceleration of 3 m/s is nothing, gravity it 9.81 m/s roughly at sea level I've been placed in a fun little device which simulates 21.582 m/s it wasn't bad at all, I could breath normally and my body didn't feel much strain. If you accelerated constantly at 21.582 m/s you'd reach 3183 m/s in 147.48 seconds roughly. So it would take 2 minutes and 27.24 seconds, no big deal really, you wouldn't have gone really far at all. If you accelerated at 3 m/s it would take 17.68 minutes a long time and abnormally low acceleration for a fighter but who cares. You still wouldn't have went far.
Added
The times are considering 0 m/s to 3183 m/s, not 3000 m/s to 3183 m/s.
