This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Pressure Coefficient - Pressure coefficient defines the value of local pressure at a point in terms of free stream pressure and dynamic pressure.
Drag Coefficient - Drag Coefficient is a dimensionless quantity that is used to quantify the drag or resistance of an object in a fluid environment, such as air or water.
Distance from Nose Tip to Required Base Diameter - (Measured in Meter) - Distance from Nose Tip to Required Base Diameter, used for studying the leading edge of the hypersonic vehicles.
Diameter - (Measured in Meter) - Diameter is a straight line passing from side to side through the center of a body or figure, especially a circle or sphere.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Drag Coefficient: 2.4 --> No Conversion Required
Distance from Nose Tip to Required Base Diameter: 1.2 Meter --> 1.2 Meter No Conversion Required
Diameter: 42 Millimeter --> 0.042 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

C_p = 0.096*(C_d^(1/2))/(x_d/d) --> 0.096*(2.4^(1/2))/(1.2/0.042)

Evaluating ... ...

C_p = 0.00520528961730277

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.00520528961730277 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.00520528961730277 ≈ 0.005205 <-- Pressure Coefficient
