Name associated with speed (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mach

(Other definitions for mach that I've seen before include "The speed of sound is ... one" , "Ratio of a body's speed to the speed of sound" , "Number referring to speed of sound" , "Austrian physicist, gave name to speed no." , "-- Number relates to speeds" .)

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