The concept of shock waves Physics stands for a generation of the wave that propagates through a medium speed in a faster way than the speed of sound would travel through it. It happens because of the sudden abrupt spike that relates to pressure. Since it takes place over a very short time period, you should start with the equation based on the energy and space as you look through the provided answers. Some shock wave questions that we offer are related to an example of shock waves in a laboratory environment, which will help you to see things clearer.
