Applied Fluid Mechanics

A fluid is a substance that is continuously deformed by the application of shear stress. The rate of deformation of a fluid depends on its viscosity. The fluid tries to flow when it interacts with some other system.

On October 3, 1967, pilot William J. "Pete" Knight set a world record that still stands to this day for the fastest flight by a crewed, powered aircraft by flying the North American Aviation X-15 as fast as Mach 6.7 at an altitude of 102,000 ft above sea level. Mach number is the ratio of an object’s velocity to the local speed of sound. Using the table for atmospheric properties with respect to altitude, calculate the speed of sound at an altitude of 100,000 ft. What must have been the velocity of the X-15?
When the Apollo command module returned to earth from the moon, itentered the earth’s atmosphere at a Mach number of 36.

Comment on the validity of your answer.
