What is Calculating Mach Number at Altitude about?
This document contains two homework problems asking the student to calculate the Mach number and pressure sensed by a Pitot tube for two different airplanes. Problem 4.58 is about a Douglas DC-3 flying at 229 mph and 7,500 ft altitude. Problem 4.59 is about a Boeing 727 flying at 610 mph and 25,000 ft altitude. The student is to use the given speeds and altitudes to find the Mach number and pitot tube pressure for each airplane.
