A typical liquid fueled liquid oxygen-kerosene rocket engine is shown schematically to the right. The exit velocity of the gasses at Point B are primarily a function of the temperature at Point A. Empirical data for the test engine is provided in the table.

  1. Using regression analysis, develop an equation from the data which best describes the velocity at Point B as a function of temperature at Point A.
  2. Fill in the missing data points using interpolation.
  3. Extrapolate the temperature required at Point A for the gas velocity at Point B at be 550 m/sec.
  4. Discuss the potential errors of predicting a temperature to produce a gas velocity of 550 m/sec.
