An incident shock within a shock tube is traveling through driven section where the pressure ratio is given as p2/p₁ = 860 across the incident shock. This incident shock reflects from the end wall of the tube and creating a reflected shock. Knowing that the fluid used in both sections is air with driven and treating the air as a section pressure of p₁ = 5 atm and temperature of T₁ = 270 K calorically perfect gas: a) Calculate the reflected shock wave velocity relative to the ground.

Question
An incident shock within a shock tube is traveling through driven section where the pressure
ratio is given as p2/p₁ = 860
across the incident shock. This incident shock reflects from the end
wall of the tube and creating a reflected shock. Knowing that the fluid used in both sections is air with driven
and treating the air as a
section pressure of p₁ = 5 atm
and temperature of T₁ = 270 K
calorically perfect gas:
a) Calculate the reflected shock wave velocity relative to the ground.
