Shock Waves

Shock waves are common in continuum mechanics, and their dominance is attributable to the fact that they are stronger (or even less) compressible. Substantial perturbations propagated as sudden dynamic changes of a compressible medium supersonically. Shock waves are all around us in our daily lives. Lightning, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and meteorite impact all produce them in nature. Even the earth, which is protected by its magnetic field, generates a shock wave as in solar wind that travels around 20 Earth radiuses. These shock waves might be either constant, linked to the body, or unsteady, i.e., moving around with time. All of the shocks mentioned above can be damaging, so precautions must be taken to reduce their impact.

An osprey (a type of hawk) has a distinct call: a whistle at 2100 Hz. An osprey calls while diving at you — you’ve gotten too close to her nest and she wants to drive you away! The frequency you perceive is 2400 Hz. How fast is the osprey approaching? (The speed of sound in air varies with temperature, but in this problem you can take it to be 343 m/s, the speed at 20◦C.)
A group of hikers hears an echo 4.20 s after shouting. How far away is the mountain that reflected the sound wave? (Assume the speed of sound is 341 m/s.)

There was an accident and NASA engineers are trying to sort out where two of their Mars Rovers, Tango and Foxtrot, have landed. The engineers know that landing site A is much hotter than landing site B. Unfortunately, the only working sensors on Tango and Foxtrot measure the speed of sound. If Tango measures the speed of sound at it's landing site as 240 m/s, while Foxtrot measures speed of sound as 258 m/s at it's landing site, where has each rover landed?
Sound Caused by an explosion on the ocean's surface travels vertically downward to an underwater mountain and it is refelceted back to a microphone at the surface. if it takes 11.6 seconds to occur and sound travels at 1450 m/s in water, what is the depth to this mountain?
An explosion occurs at the end of a pier. The sound reaches the other end of the pier by traveling through three media: air, fresh water, and a slender metal handrail.
