Question

Q4. A uniform supersonic stream of air at Mach 2 encounters an expansion corner that deflects the stream by an angle 18° which increases the downstream Mach number by 25%. From the given data answer the following questions (a) The angles (in 'degrees') the forward Mach line make with respect to upstream flow direction is (b) The angles (in 'degrees') the rearward Mach line make with respect to upstream flow direction is
