Answer

$s_{2}-s_{1}= 0.242\text{ kj/kg}\cdot\text{K}$

Work Step by Step

The entropy change across the shock is determined to be $$ \begin{aligned} s_2-s_1 & =c_p \ln \frac{T_2}{T_1}-R \ln \frac{P_2}{P_1} \\ & =(1.005 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{kg} \cdot \mathrm{K}) \ln (2.3230)-(0.287 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{kg} \cdot \mathrm{K}) \ln (8.2208) \\ & =\mathbf{0 . 2 4 2~ k J} / \mathbf{k g} \cdot \mathbf{K} \end{aligned} $$
