Repeat Example 3.10, except assuming equal velocities of (1700 mathrm{~m} / mathrm{s}) and temperatures of (288 mathrm{~K})

Question:

Repeat Example 3.10, except assuming equal velocities of \(1700 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) and temperatures of \(288 \mathrm{~K}\) for both gas flows.

Data From Problem 3.10:

Consider two flows, one of helium and one of air, at the same Mach number of 5. Denoting the strength of a normal shock by the pressure ratio across the shock, \(p_{2} / p_{1}\), which gas will result in the stronger shock? For a monatomic gas such as helium, \(\gamma=1.67\), and for a diatomic gas such as air, \(\gamma=1.4\).
