Question: Using EES (or other) software, calculate and plot the entropy change of air across the normal shock for upstream Mach numbers between 0.5 and 1.5

Using EES (or other) software, calculate and plot the entropy change of air across the normal shock for upstream Mach numbers between 0.5 and 1.5 in increments of 0.1. Explain why normal shock waves can occur only for upstream Mach numbers greater than Ma = 1.
