When a sound source moves faster than the speed of sound, a shock wave is produced as the sound waves interfere. A sonic boom is the intense sound that occurs as the shock wave moves along the ground. A bow wake is produced when an object moves faster than the speed of a mechanical wave in the medium, such as a boat moving through the water.

      The Doppler effect is the apparent change in frequency of a wave when the observer and the source of the wave move relative to each other.

The actual change in frequency is called the Doppler shift. A sonic boom is constructive interference of sound created by an object moving faster than sound. A sonic boom is a type of bow wake created when any wave source moves faster than the wave propagation speed.

(In a vacuum, the maximum speed of light is c = 3.00 × 108 m/s; in the medium of water, the speed of light is closer to 0.75c.) If the particle creates light in its passage, that light spreads on a cone with an angle indicative of the speed of the particle, as illustrated in Figure \(\PageIndex{5}\).
