Calculate Mach Number (M)



Formula

The formula to calculate the Mach Number (M) is:

\[ M = \frac{u}{c} \]

Where:

Definition

Example

Let's say the local velocity (u) is 340 m/s and the speed of sound (c) is 340 m/s. Using the formula:

\[ M = \frac{340}{340} = 1 \]

So, the Mach number is 1.
