What is mach regarding speed?
That means the speed, compared to the speed of sound. For example, "mach 2" means twice the speed of sound.
Mach speed is how many miles?
Mach 1 is the speed of sound. 768 miles per hr. Mach 2 is twice that & so on.
How fast in in Mach would you have to go to make it 442 miles in one minute?
Mach velocities are all relative to the speed of sound in that gas, at that density. Mach 1 = the speed of sound. Mach 2 = twice the speed of sound. It does not have an invariant conversion into miles per minute.
How many miles per hour is mach 8?
Mach is not an absolute speed but a relative speed. The Mach value of an object is the ratio of the speed fo the object travelling through a medium to the speed of sound travelling through the same medium. Now sound travels faster in denser mediums so the speed of sound in [dense]air at sea level is greater than the speed of sound at high altitude. So Mach 2 in the air at sea level is faster than Mach 2 at high altitude. But Mach 2 under water is very much faster. However, most people are ignorant about the proper meaning of Mach and assume that it is simply related to the speed of sound at sea level at normal temperature/pressure/humidity - approximately 760 miles per hour. In that case Mach 8 would be 6080 mph.
What speed is 0.72 Mach?
0,72 Mach is a subsonic speed. Mach number = speed of an object/speed of sound The speed of sound in dry air at 20 0C is 1 236 km/h.
