The wing area of the Lockheed F-104 straight-wing supersonic fighter is approximately 210 ft. If the airplane weighs 16,000 lb and is flying in level flight at Mach 2.2 at a standard altitude of 36,000 ft, estimate the wave drag on the wings.

Steel is coated with a thin layer of ceramic to protect against corrosion. what do you expect to happen to the coating when the temperature of the steel is increased significantly? explain.

The temperature of air decreases as it is compressed by an adiabatic compressor. a)- true b)- false

For the closed feedwater heater below, feedwater enters state 3 at a pressure of 2000 psia and temperature of 420 °f at a rate of ix10 ibhr. the feedwat extracted steam enters state 1 at a pressure of 1000 psia and enthalpy of 1500 btu/lbm. the extracted er leaves at an enthalpy of 528.7 btu/lbm steam leaves as a saturated liquid. (16) a) determine the mass flow rate of the extraction steam used to heat the feedwater (10) b) determine the terminal temperature difference of the closed feedwater heater
