A standing normal shock occurs in air which is flowing at a Mach number of $1.75 .$ What are the pressure and temperature ratios across the shock? What is the increase in entropy across the shock?
Air enters a normal shock at $26 \mathrm{kPa}, 230 \mathrm{K},$ and $815 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} .$ Calculate the stagnation pressure and Mach number upstream of the shock, as well as pressure, temperature, velocity, Mach number, and stagnation pressure downstream of the shock.
