A hypersonic projectile enters the atmosphere at a non-standard angle of attack of a 10.2 deg. The length and thickness of the vehicle is 1.2 m by 0.10 m. Assume the span is unity. The estimated Mach number of the vehicle is 20. The local temperature near the vehicle is 2300 Kelvin and density 0.017 kg m3. Estimate using Newton's corpuscular theory the coefficient of lift and drag, c and ca, and the lift and drag, I, and d.
