Mach number Mach number In fluid dynamics, the Mach number (M or Ma) (; ) is a dimensionless quantity representing the ratio of flow velocity past a boundary to the local speed of sound. where: By definition, at Mach1, the local flow velocity is equal to the speed of sound. At Mach0.65, is 65% of the speed of sound (subsonic), and, at Mach1.35, is 35% faster than the speed of sound (supersonic). The local speed of sound, and thereby the Mach number, depends on the condition of the surrounding medium, in particular the temperature. The Mach number is primarily used to determine
Ford Mustang Mach 1 1 models of the previous four years. The 302 Windsor returned in 1975, rated at and of torque, giving the Pinto platform a notable performance boost. Also available was a 4-speed manual. The Mach 1 remained mostly unchanged in 1976, as a new performance model - the Cobra II - was introduced alongside. 1977 proved to be the weakest sales year of the Mach 1 to date, selling only 6,719 units. The nameplate remained for one more year, upon when it was discontinued with the advent of the third generation Mustang in 1979. During the 1990s, the preeminent performance Mustang
