Shock Waves

Shock waves are common in continuum mechanics, and their dominance is attributable to the fact that they are stronger (or even less) compressible. Substantial perturbations propagated as sudden dynamic changes of a compressible medium supersonically. Shock waves are all around us in our daily lives. Lightning, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and meteorite impact all produce them in nature. Even the earth, which is protected by its magnetic field, generates a shock wave as in solar wind that travels around 20 Earth radiuses. These shock waves might be either constant, linked to the body, or unsteady, i.e., moving around with time. All of the shocks mentioned above can be damaging, so precautions must be taken to reduce their impact.

I turn around and head back to earth at 95% of the speed of light. WHat is the wavelength I see and I move away from the star? C. From my daughter prespective, how old is she when I return?
3.04 Part A What is the velocity of all electromagnetic waves in a vacuum? The velocity of electromagnetic waves is nearly equal to 3 x 10° m/s. O The velocity of electromagnetic waves depends upon their frequency. O The velocity of electromagnetic waves depends upon their amplitude. O Electromagnetic waves do not propagate forward; hence, their velocity is zero. O The velocity of electromagnetic waves depends upon their wavelength. Submit My Answers Give Up
