Ross

I believe the answer is:

mach

(Other definitions for mach that I've seen before include "Ratio of a body's speed to the speed of sound" , "Ratio of the speed of a moving body to the speed of sound" , "The speed of sound is ... one" , "Ratio used to measure high speeds" , "-- Number relates to speeds" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
