A two-dimensional wedge shown moves through the atmosphere at zero angle of attack at M = 3.0. The approach flow static pressure is, P = 20,000 Pa. Assume that the width of the wedge is 1m into the paper. The chord length, c = 1m. Specific heat ratio, y=1.4. a) (8 pts) Calculate the Mach number on the compression surface. b) (8 pts) Calculate the static pressure on the compression surface. c) (8 pts) Calculate the Mach number on the expansion surface. d) (8 pts) Calculate the static pressure on the expansion surface. e) (8 pts) Calculate the drag. compression surface 10 expansion surface 10
