A small rocket probing the atmosphere has a length of 3 m. It is fired vertically upward through the atmosphere, its average velocity being 1000 m/s. Consider the flow over the rocket at this average velocity at altitudes of 30,000 and 80,000 m. Can the air flow over the rocket be assumed to be continuous at these two altitudes? At an altitude of 30,000 m, the air has a temperature, pressure, and viscosity of ?55°C, 120 Pa, and 1.5 × 10?5 kg/m · s, respectively, whereas at an altitude of 80,000 m, the air has a temperature, pressure, and viscosity of ?34°C, 0.013 Pa, and 1.7 × 10?5 kg/m · s, respectively
