Question

A supersonic jet traveling at Mach 3.00 at an altitude of h = 2.00 x 104 m is directly over a person at time t = 0 as shown in Figure P14.35. Assume the average speed of sound in air is 335 m/s over the path of the sound. (a) At what time will the person encounter the shock wave due to the sound emitted at t = 0? (b) Where will the plane be when this shock wave is heard?
