A whip is a tapered flexible length of either a single cord or plaited (braided) leather or other material, commonly with a stiff handle. Whips are traditionally used to produce a loud sharp sound—a "crack"—to drive or direct livestock or harnessed animals.
When rapidly moved in a particular motion at the base, whips "crack" and make a loud noise. It was thought until recently that this was because their tails have broken the sound barrier. But according to a 2002 research by Alain Goriely, though the tip does break the sound barrier, the sonic boom itself is produced by the loop as it speeds toward the tip.
Other devices made of straps and used to strike human beings or animals as a means of control or punishment or torture are sometimes also called whips—though they do not crack. These may include riding crops, horse whips, and various flogging instruments.
