Question: Question A 3 : A pitot - static tube is introduced in a supersonic flow. Determine the speed of the flowing ( free ) stream

Question A3: A pitot-static tube is introduced in a supersonic flow. Determine the speed of the flowing (free) stream if the tube reads a stagnation pressure of 130 kPa , a static pressure of 110 kPa and a static temperature of 519 K (in the proximity of the tube), for: (a) the gas is air (R=287Jkg-K,=1.4); (b) the gas is Helium (R=2077Jkg-K,=53.
