A shockwave is high pressure wave produced by an object that travels faster than the speed of sound according to the same medium characteristics, in which different changes can be measured for example; extreme pressure and rising of the temperature.
The visualisation of the shockwave can be seen in the following picture.

historia por francisto.....

Definition:As an object moves through a gas, the gas molecules are deflected around the object. If the speed of the object is much less than the speed of sound of the gas, the density of the gas remains constant and the flow of gas can be described by conserving momentum and energy. As the speed of the object increases towards the speed of sound, we must consider compressibility effects on the gas. The density of the gas varies locally as the gas is compressed by the object

then M, Mach number, would be M , so if an object move twice time faster that sound speed the Mach number would 2.
