Expert Solution
Step 1

Mechanical Engineering homework question answer, step 1, image 1

Step 2

From properties table of gases,Specific heat ratio of the air, k=1.4From table of 'Prandtl-Meyer Supersonic expansion function' for , k=1.4Prandtl-Meyer angle for upstream condition of mach number Ma1=3 is ωMa1=49.76oExpansion turning angle is the difference in Prandtl-Meyer angles for the two conditionsω=ωMa2-ωMa1Hence, the prandtl Meyer angle for the downstream condition of arc is given by,ωMa2=ωMa1+ωωMa2=49.76+5ωMa2=54.76oFrom the table of  Prandtl Meyer supersonic expansion function for k=1.4, the approximatedownstream mach number for the angle of , ωMa2=54.76o is Ma2=3.274Hence the mach number of the stream after deflection, Ma2=3.274
