Air flows through a converging nozzle. If the stagnation pressure is P_0 = 200 kPa and \gamma = 1.4, what is the static pressure P^* (in kPa) at the throat under choked conditions? (Take critical pressure ratio = 0.528, round to one decimal place).

Answer Key:
105.6

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

### Solution: P^* = 0.528 * P_0 = 0.528 * 200 = 105.6 kPa. Correct: 105.6 (range 105.0 to 106.5).
