An axial compressor rotor with 50 % degree of reaction operates with an axial velocity of 200 m/s

Q. An axial compressor rotor with 50 % degree of reaction, operates with an axial velocity of 200 m/s. The absolute flow angle at the inlet of the rotor is 22o with reference to the axial direction. If the axial velocity is assumed to remain constant through the rotor, the magnitude of the relative velocity (in m/s) at the rotor exit is 

Ans: 215.0 to 216.5
