Altitude of maximum heating rate


A micrometeorite collection system is returned to Earth from its mother ship. If the reentry velocity of the capsule is 8.2 km/s, the reentry flight-path is 12 degrees, and the BC is 1100.0 kg/m^2, determine: a. The maximum deceleration the capsule will experience, and at what altitude it will occur. b. The altitude of maximum heating rate, as well as the velocity at which it occurs.
