At Mach, the air has compressed as much as it can, which is why it takes so much energy to force a solid object through Mach. You have the concepts reversed in your head. Rip If you look in books on aerodynamics, you'll find that air is effectively an incompressible fluid at low speeds, such as those encountered in small aircraft. It isn't until you get to the transonic range that compression starts to be an issue, and the rules change substantially at and beyond the speed of sound. |
