SOLUTION: The Mach number, M, is the ration of the speed of an object, v, traveling through a fluid medium to the velocity of sound Vs, through that medium. Hence, log(M) = a. log(v) -

Question 144349: The Mach number, M, is the ration of the speed of an object, v, traveling through a fluid medium to the velocity of sound Vs, through that medium. Hence, log(M) =
a. log(v) - log(Vs)
b. log(v-Vs)
c. log(v) + log(Vs)
d. log(v) log(Vs)

The Mach number, M, is the ratio of the speed of an object, v, traveling through a fluid medium to the velocity of sound Vs, through that medium. Hence, log(M) =
a. log(v) - log(Vs)
b. log(v-Vs)
c. log(v) + log(Vs)
d. log(v) log(Vs)
------------------
logM = log[v/vs]
= logv - logvs
--------
Ans: a
