Question: 1 1 A . 5 . Velocity, temperature, and pressure changes in a shock wave. Air at 1 atm and 7 0 F is flowing

11A.5. Velocity, temperature, and pressure changes in a shock wave. Air at 1 atm and 70F is flowing at an upstream Mach number of 2 across a stationary shock wave. Calculate the following quantities, assuming that is constant at 1.4 and that hat(C)p=0.24Btulbm*F :
(a) The initial velocity of the air.
(b) The velocity, temperature, and pressure downstream from the shock wave.
(c) The changes of internal and kinetic energy across the shock wave.
Answer: (a)2250fts
(b)844fts;888R;4.48atm
(c)hat(U)=+61.4Btulbm;hat(K)-86.9Btulbm
