You look directly overhead
i 6p7jrs9a8zj and see a plane exactly 1.5 km above the ground flying faster than the speed of sound. By the time you hear the sonic boom, the plane has traveled a horizontal distance of 2.0 km. See Fig. 12
a98jrpi 7s jz6–34. Determine
(a) the angle of the shock cone, $\theta$
$^{\circ} $
(b) the speed of the plane (the Mach number). Assume the speed of sound is 330 m/s
