The static pressure to stagnation pressure ratio at a point in a gas flow field is measured

Question:

The static pressure to stagnation pressure ratio at a point in a gas flow field is measured with a Pitot-static probe as being equal to 0.6 . The stagnation temperature of the gas is \(20^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). Determine the flow speed in \(\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}\) and the Mach number if the gas is air. What error would be associated with assuming that the flow is incompressible?
