You look directly overhead and see a plane exactly 1.5 k
xql. 9knbm9k3m above the ground flying faster than the speed of sound. By the time you hear the sonic boo
n3.kb9 xqm9lkm, the plane has traveled a horizontal distance of 2.0 km. See Fig. 12–34. 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
