Velocity behind Normal Shock from Normal Shock Energy Equation Formula

Velocity Downstream of Shock = sqrt(2*(Enthalpy Ahead of Normal Shock+(Velocity Upstream of Shock^2)/2-Enthalpy Behind Normal Shock))
V2 = sqrt(2*(h1+(V1^2)/2-h2))

Why downstream velocity decreases across normal shock?

The velocity downstream of standing normal shock decreases because the static enthalpy increases after the normal shock and for the total enthalpy to remain constant across the normal shock, the downstream velocity decreases.
