Shock waves arise in many physical applications, ranging from supernovas to detonation waves. A graph of the density of a shock wave with respect to distance, x, is shown here. We are mainly interested in the location of the front of the shock, labeledxSFxSF in the diagram. Evaluate limx→xSF+ρ(x). Evaluate limx→xSF−ρ(x). Evaluate limx→xSFρ(x). Explain the physical meanings behind your answers.
