The speed of sound varies greatly, depending on the material it goes through - in some cases, by a factor of 5 or more. The speed of sound in air will depend slightly on temperature, pressure, etc., but it is about 340 meters/second. I'll leave it up to you to convert that to mph.

The speed of sound at sea level at 15 degree celsius is calculated to be 761.2 mph or 1225 km/h.Speed of sound varies with altitude and temperature. So this speed varies when conditions change. So this answer is not comletely correct.

How fast is mach 20?

Mach 20= 15,200 miles per hour.Mach numbers are determined by the speed of the object divided by the speed of sound.The speed of sound is approx. 760 miles/hour - a Mach 1 number would be the speed of the object (760 mph) divided by the speed of sound (760 mph) = 1Mach 20 would be 20 times the speed of sound (760 mph) = 15,200 mph.It is absurd to think that the government just lost an aircraft flying at the speed of 700 billion mph!
