The entropy rise across a weak oblique shock varies, to leading order, as
Answer: D
Expanding the entropy change for a weak shock shows the first and second order terms vanish, leaving a cubic dependence on the strength. This is why a vanishingly weak wave may be treated as isentropic, and why splitting a compression into several weak shocks is so much cheaper than doing it with one strong one.
