The Attempt at a Solution


I tried a few different things, they all involve finding u and v components of velocity. I know the stagnation point is at y = 0. I also know that at stagnation u = v = 0.

If I get the velocity magnitude and set it equal to 0 and set y equal to 0, I still have too many variables to solve for anything.

I did manage to figure it out on my own last night. Thanks for the reply.
