Social ScienceAir enters a diffuser operating at steady state at 540°R, 15 lbf/in.2, with a velocity of 600 ft/s, and exits with a velocity of 60 ft/s. The ratio of the exit area to the inlet area is 6.Assuming the ideal gas model for the air and ignoring heat transfer, determine the temperature, in °R, and pressure, in lbf/in.2, at the exit.
