speed of sound ~ 330 m/s. soooo, hmmmm, chain calculation time:
330 m/s (1.0936 yards/1 m) (1 mile/1760 yards) (3600 seconds/1 hr) = 738.18 miles per hour. w00t! i love this stuff!!!

pshhhhh, my civic is faster

hey mechanical engineer dude, is it your speed or your acceleration that determines the Gs?

dayyum! if you get 7.9 Gs at .9 mach, i wonder what it's like to break the sound barrier

Ma= V/a

V=velocity

a=(RKT)^.5

for air
R= 287
K=1.4
T=temp, at the altitude, colder air at higher altitude

Ma number is dependent on temperature, so if u drive ur civic in alaska,
you are going at a higher mach number than in california

G's (laterial gravitational pulls) is basically the normal force that your
body encounters during a turn

when u make a hard left turn, your body is going to the right, but your support on
seat is giving back a opposite force on ur right side, this resistance is the normal force(G's)
