Ernst Mach of experimental physics concentrated on the interference, diffraction, polarization and refraction of light in different media under external influences. From there followed important explorations in the field of supersonic fluid mechanics. Mach and physicist-photographer Peter Salcher presented their paper on this subject in 1887; it correctly describes the sound effects observed during the supersonic motion of a projectile. They deduced and experimentally confirmed the existence of a shock wave of conical shape, with the projectile at the apex. The ratio of the speed of a fluid to the local speed of sound "v"/"v" is now called the Mach number. It
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
