Chapter 18, Problem 6RQ
An unmanned X-43A scramjet test vehicle has achieved a maximum speed of Mach number 9.68 in a test flight over the Pacific Ocean. Mach number is defined as the speed of an object divided by the speed of sound. Assuming the speed of sound is 343 meters per second, write a MAT LAB program that asks the user to provide a speed as a Mach number, calculates the corresponding speed in miles per hour, and displays the speed in a formatted sentence as shown in the following sample output. Note that the speed in mph should be shown as an integer. If the user provides a negative value for the Mach number, your program should display an error message and terminate.
Enter the speed as a Mach number: -2
Error: The Mach number must not be negative.
Enter the speed as a Mach number: 0
The speed of the plane is 0 mph.
Enter the speed as a Mach number: 9.68
The speed of the plane is 7425 mph.
