Specifying the temperature ratio across the normal shock wave will yield which of the following across the normal shock wave?

Specifying the temperature ratio across the normal shock wave will yield which of the following across the normal shock wave? Correct Answer Upstream Mach number

Specifying a dimensionless quantity across the normal shock wave will specify all the other ratios and both the upstream and downstream Mach numbers. But for finding the velocity, temperature also needs to be specified and vice versa.

P. 0.2% yield strength of a material implies 0.2% of the yield strength.
Q. Von-Misses yield criterion implies that yielding occurs when the distortion energy reaches a critical value.

Statement (I) : When a bluff body moves at supersonic speed in still air, an attached shock wave is produced at its nose causing the flow to be subsonic behind the shock plane. Statement (II) : A normal shock always transforms supersonic flow into subsonic flow causing increase in pressure, temperature and entropy.
P, Q, R, Sand T are five crops that Babu grows. T is fast growing and more water demanding than R which gives more yield than T. P gives more yield than R and grows faster than Q. Q is more water demanding than T but is second lowest yielder, S is the slowest growing and least water demanding of all crops but gives highest yield. R is more water demanding and grows faster than P. Select the crop or crops that has/ have as many as crops that are more water demanding and as many as crops that give less yield than it. 
If the specimen is deformed plastically beyond the yield stress in one direction, e.g., tension and then after unloading it is loaded in the opposite direction, e.g., compression, it is found that the yield stress is less than the original yield stress. This dependence of yield stress on direction loading is called ____________

If the solubilities of different components (in a liquid-liquid extraction system) increase with rise in temperature, then the temperature above which they dissolve completely is known as the critical solution temperature (CST or consolute temperature). If solubilities increase with decrease in temperature, then CST is the temperature below which they dissolve completely. If a binary system has no critical solution temperature, it implies that
