Question
A bullet is fired with a speed of $685 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$. Find the half angle made by the shock cone with the line of motion of the bullet.
Step 1
The Mach angle is the angle between the direction of motion of a shock wave and the direction of motion of the object creating the shock wave. It is given by the sine of the ratio of the speed of the wave to the speed of the source. Show more…
