Using \( (1 + 0.2M^2)^{3.5} \), the ram pressure ratio available at Mach 3 is approximately

  • A.36.7
  • B.7.8
  • C.3.0
  • D.12.1

Answer: A

Substituting gives \( 2.8^{3.5} \approx 36.7 \). A ratio of that size from forward speed alone exceeds what many mechanical compressors deliver, which is precisely why a ramjet needs no rotating machinery at that speed.
