Oxygen at (100^{circ} mathrm{F}) and (20 mathrm{psia}) is flowing at (450 mathrm{ft} / mathrm{sec}) in a duct.

Question:

Oxygen at \(100^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\) and \(20 \mathrm{psia}\) is flowing at \(450 \mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{sec}\) in a duct. A valve is quickly shut, causing a normal shock to travel back through the duct.

(a) Determine the speed of the traveling shock wave.

(b) What are the temperature and pressure of the oxygen that is brought to rest?
