Chapter 8, Problem 8.17P

When the Apollo command module returned to earth from the moon, it entered the earth’s atmosphere at a Mach number of 36. Using the results from the present chapter for a calorically perfect gas with the ratio of specific heats equal to 1.4, predict the gas temperature at the stagnation point of the Apollo at Mach 36 at an altitude where the freestream temperature is 300 K. Comment on the validity of your answer.
