What is Shock Wave? | Understanding Supersonic Flow and Shock Wave Formation | Effects of Shock Wave

Thanks for your efforts:"

helped a lot, thank you for your efforts on making this video.

Most commercial planes fly within the transonic range near the speed of sound where the airflow is part subsonic and part supersonic. Modern fighters have to compromise between high supersonic speeds and subsonic cruising speeds because they can't fly at supersonic speeds for prolonged periods. Nearly all modern fighters not always but often cruise somewhat below the transonic range while only being able to reach supersonic speeds in short bursts. Sadly, planes that do indeed cruise at supersonic speeds don't fly anymore. The Concorde and SR-71 are examples that easily come to mind, but many early jet fighters like the F-104 and F-106 also flew supersonic as far as their range and fuel capacity could allow! Some advanced fighters like the F-22 can "supercruise" which means to faster than the speed of sound without the use of afterburners, this is misleading because though they could cruise faster than sound, it still isn't practical and thus are still very limited to how long they can fly at such speeds.

thank you 🧠

Very Informative !!!

Why does the normal shock move back toward the trailing edge?

Kindly make videos on aircraft guidance,navigation and controls

Nice explanation 👌
