In an ideal turbofan engine shown in the figure below, the compressor is driven by the high pressure turbine, and the fan is driven by the low pressure turbine. The stations 0, 2, 3, 4, 4.5, and 5 refer to free-stream, compressor inlet, compressor outlet, combustor exit, high pressure turbine exit, and low pressure turbine exit, respectively, and the subscript 't' refers to the total condition. Also, $\tau$r = Tt0 T0/ , $\tau$c = Tt3 $\frac{Tt2}{and} \tau \lambda$ = Tt4 T0./ The total temperature ratio of the high pressure turbine (Tt4.5 Tt4/ ) is given by ______.

A centrifugal compressor has a constant-width radial diffuser. The diameters at the diffuser inlet and outlet are 0.2 m and 0.3 m, respectively. The flow at the diffuser inlet and outlet is assumed to be steady and uniform. The average velocity at the diffuser inlet and outlet are (60 êr + 75 ê𝛉) m/s and (u êr + 50 ê𝛉) m/s, respectively. If the flow through the diffuser is treated as steady and incompressible, the value of u is ________ (rounded off to the nearest integer).
