Textbook Question
Chapter 18, Problem 12RQ
Create a program to determine whether a given Mach number is subsonic, transonic, supersonic, or hypersonic. Assume the user will enter the speed of the object in meters per second, and the program will determine the Mach number (actual speed divided by the speed of sound). As output, the program will display the Mach number to two decimal places. The program should include a check to ensure that the user entered a positive value. If a nonpositive value is entered, the program should inform the user of the error and terminate.
The speed of sound 1s about 343 m/s. The classifications are as follows:
Subsonic < Mach 1
Transonic = Mach 1
Mach 1 <Supersonic< Mach 5
Hypersonic ≥ Mach 5

Please provide the correct matlab code for the following question.
Please only answer STEP 2 question. THIS IS MY 3RD TIME POSTING THE SAME QUESTION AND NOT GETTING THE ANSWER I NEED. DONT SOLVE FOR THE MAIN QUESTION, I NEED THE ANSWER TO THE SECOND PART OF THE QUESTION ONLY.
I was going over the equations for the notes in class and I had a thought. Based on the equations in the image, you could get negative propellant mass. So, I coded it in matlab and I got negative mass. How is that possible? I think I used practical values for the velocity and mass ratio and so on. Did I do something wrong?
