Comment on Why can't a liquid move faster than the speed of sound in that medium?
Little_mouse@lemmy.ca 5 days agoTrue. You can shoot lasers and such through a lot of things, but I am trying to describe a phenomenon in relatively simple language without getting too bogged down in the technical details. The question was about flowing liquids, so I assumed it was understood that that was what I was talking about.

All you did was define the speed of sound and then state:
“The speed of sound in a liquid medium is defined by the speed at which energy can propagate in that system, which includes motion”
Which is just a reiteration of what the speed of sound is and then an incorrect correlation to motion.
You didn’t describe what flow is, how it relates to the speed of sound, or and why flow stops at high flow rates. Your comment doesn’t answer the question and it’s worse than a nothing burger because it contains misinformation.
