Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 27P
The maximum theoretical flow rate (slug/s) through a supersonic nozzle is
where At(ft2) is the nozzle throat area, p0 (psia) is the tank pressure, and T0(R) is the tank temperature. Is this equation dimensionally correct? If not, find the units of the 2.38 term. Write the equivalent equation in SI units.

Variation of the density can be modeled when climbing a mountain as p%3887,19*[16-(4z/71)] kg/m³. If wind
speed at the top of the mountain is V = 21i + 127+ 3k m/s, calculate the changing of total density with
time [kg/m.s] at the mountain summit? (NOTE: Take air properties at -10 °C at the top of the mountain. Also,
your results must be negative magnitude!!!)
If Mach number is larger than 0.3, then the flow is considered incompressible.
