Question: Find the drag (axial - positive x-direction - force on solid structure due to fluids) on a 2D symmetric center-body structure assembly in the inlet

Find the drag (axial - positive x-direction - force on solid structure due to fluids) on a 2D symmetric center-body structure assembly in the inlet of a high speed engine operating at a flight Mach number of 3.0 (see sketch below). The fluid pressure in region A is 83457 N/m2. The fluid pressure in region B is 20605 N/m2. The fluid pressure in region C is 318.3 N/m2. Note that a 2-D object is defined as 1 meter depth 'into the paper' with no variance in properties or characteristics in that direction. Assume inviscid flow
