All of the following change across a normal shock EXCEPT

  • A.The stagnation pressure
  • B.The static pressure
  • C.The Mach number
  • D.The stagnation temperature

Answer: D

A shock is adiabatic, so the stagnation temperature is carried through unchanged. Everything else listed alters sharply: static pressure and temperature jump up, the Mach number drops below one, and stagnation pressure falls because entropy rises.
