A jet transport is flying at a standard altitude of 30,000 feet with a velocity of 550 miles per hour. What is the Mach number?
A jet fighter plane travels in horizontal flight at Mach 1.20 (that is, 1.20 times the speed of sound in air). At the instant an observer on the ground hears the shock wave, what is the angle her line of sight makes with the horizontal as she looks at the plane?
Assume that, at a point on the wing of the concorde supersonic transport, the air temperature is -19.3c and the pressure is 1.75x10^4 N/m 2. Calculate the density (in kg/m^3) at this point.
Note: Specific Heat of Air in Metric Unit, R = 287j/kg*K
