Calculating Plane Speed from Shockwave
HEY MAN, i think i finally got it: first equation - nb of machs : machs = velocity of plane / velocity of sound second - distance ratio: tan(angle) = x/900 third: velocity of plane / velocity of sound = 1/sin(angle) fourth: x = velocity of plane * 2.2 secondes x is...- DmX0rZ

Calculating Plane Speed from Shockwave
I mentionned in my post, c is the velocity of sound, in this problem we use c = 331.4 Plane is at 900 meters above my head and i hear the sound after 2.2 seconds, that's all i got.- DmX0rZ

Calculating Plane Speed from Shockwave
nah we've been threw this section so fast, only thing i have is vs = c / sin(angle) and machs = vs/c = 1 / sin(angle)where vs is velocity of thing moving, c is velocity of sound- DmX0rZ

Calculating Plane Speed from Shockwave
1. Homework Statement A plane passes from 900 meters over my head. I hear the shockwave after 2.2 seconds. At what speed in Mach is the plane flying ? Speed of sound = 331. 4 m/s 2. Homework Equations Machs = speed of plane / speed of sound 3. The Attempt at a Solution I don't...- DmX0rZ
