2.(20 pts) You are conducting experiments on an airfoil in a wind tunnel. A manometer connected to a pitot-static probe in the wind tunnel's test section measures a differential pressure of 6 inches of water column. The local static pressure and temperature in the test section are 2040 psf and \(515^{\circ} R \), respectively. (a) Determine the velocity in the test section. In addition, you measure a pressure of -4 inches of water column at a point on the upper surface of the wing. Determine (b) the pressure coefficient value at this point, and (c) the speed of the air moving over this point.
The specific gravity of water is \(62.4\mathrm{lb}/\mathrm{ft}^{3}\) and the gas constant of air is \(1716\mathrm{ft}\cdot \mathrm{lb}/\mathrm{slug}\cdot{}^{\circ}\mathrm{R}\)
