A small research vehicle with a length of 4 ft travels at Mach15 at altitudes of 100,000 and 250,000 ft. Determine whether, atthese two altitudes, the missile is in the continuum, slip,transition, or free molecular flow regimes. It can be assumed thatat an altitude of 100,000 ft, the pressure, temperature, andviscosity are 22 psf, 340 R, and 96 × 10?7 lbm/ft-s, respectively,whereas at an altitude of 250,000 ft, they are 0.11 psf, 450 R, and100 × 10?7 lbm/ft-s, respectively
