A normal shock wave takes place during the flow of air at a Mach number of 1.8. The static pressure and temperature of the air u
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

The pressure upstream and downstream of a shock wave are related as

\frac{P_{1}}{P_{o}}=\frac{2\gamma M^{2}-(\gamma -1)}{\gamma +1}

where,

\gamma= Specific Heat ratio of air

M = Mach number upstream

We know that \gamma _{air}=1.4

Applying values we get

\frac{P_{1}}{100kPa}=\frac{2\times 1.4\times 1.8^{2}-(1.4 -1)}{1.4 +1}\\\\\frac{P_{1}}{100kPa}=3.61\\\\\therefore P_{1}=361.33kPa(Absloute)

Similarly the temperature downstream is obtained by the relation

\frac{T_{1}}{T_{o}}=\frac{[2\gamma M^{2}-(\gamma -1)][(\gamma -1)M^{2}+2]}{(\gamma +1)^{2}M^{2}}

Applying values we get

\frac{T_{1}}{423}=\frac{[2\times 1.4\times 1.8^{2}-(1.4-1)][(1.4-1)1.8^{2}+2]}{(1.4+1)^{2}\times 1.8^{2}}\\\\\therefore \frac{T_{1}}{423}=1.53\\\\\therefore T_{1}=647.85K=374.85^{o}C

The Mach number downstream is obtained by the relation

M_{d}^{2}=\frac{(\gamma -1)M^{2}+2}{2\gamma M^{2}-(\gamma -1)}\\\\\therefore M_{d}^{2}=\frac{(1.40-1)\times 1.8^{2}+2}{2\times1.4\times 1.8^{2}-(1.4-1)}\\\\\therefore M_{d}^{2}=0.38\\\\M_{d}=0.616

What did the discovery of the Cumberland Gap mean for exploration? PLEASE HELP ILL GIVE YOU BRAINLEIST!
Flauer [41]

Answer: D. Many more people crossed the mountains and settled between the Appalachians and the Mississippi

Explanation:

It was quite difficult to cross the Appalachian mountains at the time of the American colonies which led to the colonies being confined to the east of it.

This was until the late 1700s when Daniel Boone and a team of explorers heard that a path existed through the Appalachians and had been used by natives for a long time. After discovering this ''gap'' which was then named after an English prince, many more people were able to use it to settle more to the west of the continent.
