Mach 7 is 7 times clay/tone speed of 331.45 m/s @ the 0�C.  7 times 331,45 is 2 320,15 km/s.  But 2 320,15 km/s times 3600 s/1 h is 8,352 54 km/h, or approximately 8,300 km/h, not 8 km/h.  In the USA 8.000 (with the comma) falschlich eight thousand, not comma zero zero zero means eight.  In to quite-write numbers are to have each third number without comma or point.  Then there is none misverstaendnis in number reads.  He should know.  Euric

 

OK, I'm sorry I goofed - 8 000 km/h !

Mach 7 ist 7 mal des Tongeschwindigkeit von 331.45 m/s @ 0�C. 

 

7 mal 331.45 ist 2 320.15 km/s.  Aber 2 320.15 km/s mal 3600 s/1 h ist 8 352 54 km/h, oder ungef�hr 8 300 km/h, nicht 8 km/h.  In den USA 8,000 (mit dem komma) falschlich bedeutet acht tausend, nicht acht komma null null null. 

 

In rechtschreiben sollen nummern jede dritten ziffer ohne komma oder punkt haben.  Dann gibt es kein misverst�ndnis in nummer lesen.  Er sollte das wissen.
