A cruise missile under test is moving horizontally at Ma =2 in the atmosphere at an elevation of 2000 m (Air temperature is 2 °C). Determine the half-angle "alpha" of the Mach cone.

Different types of steels contain different elements that alter the characteristics of the steel. for each of the following elements, explain what the element does when alloyed with steel.

Air enters a horizontal, constant-diameter heating duct operating at steady state at 290 k, 1 bar, with a volumetric flow rate of 0.25 m°/s, and exits at 325 k, 0.95 bar. the flow area is 0.04 m2. assuming the ideal gas model with k = 1.4 for the air, determine (a) the velocity at the inlet and exit, each in m/s, and (c) the rate of heat transfer, in kw flow rate, in kg/s, (b) the mass kg 0.3

Brief discuss how the presence of dislocations in crystal structures can be an advantage and a disadvantage to engineer and designers.
