Question:
A racing car travels at \(235 \mathrm{mph}\) along a straightaway. The team engineer wishes to locate an air inlet on the body of the car to obtain cooling air for the driver's suit. The plan is to place the inlet at a location where the air speed is \(60 \mathrm{mph}\) along the surface of the car. Calculate the static pressure at the proposed inlet location. Express the pressure rise above ambient as a fraction of the freestream dynamic pressure.
