Textbook Question
Chapter 15, Problem 4ICA
An unmanned X-43A scramjet test vehicle has achieved a maximum speed of Mach number X.XX in a test flight over the Pacific Ocean, where X.XX is a positive value entered by the user. Mach number is defined as the speed of an object divided by the speed of sound. Assume the speed of sound is 343 meters per second. Determine the speed in units of miles per hour. For a test case, you may assume that the user provides the value of 9.68 for the Mach number.
