Question 1
A model of submarine is scaled down to 1/25 of the prototype and is to be tested in a wind tunnel. The speed of the prototype at which we are to estimate the drag is 10 m/s. The ratio of the drag between the model and the prototype is
[Take vsea water = 1.21 x 10-2 cm2/s, vair = 1.64 x 10-1 cm2/s and psea water = 1027 kg/m3, pair = 1.34 kg/m3]
