Correct Answer : 2
Explanation : For a conical flow placed in a freestream Mach number M∞ with a particular cone angle θc, there exists two oblique shock waves which is a result of one weak and one strong solution. It is similar to the case of wedge where using θ – β – M graph we obtain two shock waves.
Correct Answer : Option (D) : θc > θcmax
Explaination : For a given freestream Mach number M∞, there exists a maximum cone angle for which if we go beyond that value, the shock wave originating at the cone’s vertex gets detached. Thus, the condition for detached shock wave is θc > θcmax.
Correct Answer : Option (B) : (θmax)wedge > (θmax)cone
Explaination : Due to the three-dimensional relieving effect, for a particular freestream Mach number, the maximum cone angle allowed is larger than the maximum wedge angle before the shock wave becomes detached.
Correct Answer : Option (A) : Between the oblique shock and the sonic line
Explanation : The incoming flow over a cone is mostly supersonic between the surface of the cone and the oblique shock wave. Except in some cases when the half cone angle is large, flow sometimes becomes subsonic and one of the rays originating the cone’s vertex acts at the sonic line. The flow between the sonic line and the oblique shock thus remains supersonic.
