(1) The document is an exam for a Basic Aeronautical Engineering course that contains 8 questions ranging from aerodynamic forces on airfoils to speed of sound and pressure distributions. (2) It asks students to derive equations for speed of sound and Bernoulli's equation, and explain pressure distributions on airfoils at different angles of attack. (3) Other concepts covered include streamlines, pressure and density variations in the atmosphere, symmetrical vs. unsymmetrical airfoils, and subsonic vs. transonic flow regimes.
