Statement I: A choked convergent nozzle always carries a positive pressure thrust term.

Statement II: Its exit pressure remains above ambient because expansion is incomplete.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer.

  • A.Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
  • B.Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
  • C.Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
  • D.Both Statement I and Statement II are correct

Answer: D

Both hold and the second is the reason. That term partly compensates for the velocity the nozzle failed to produce, which is why a simple convergent nozzle remains acceptable on many engines despite being under-expanded.
