The drag characteristics of a torpedo are to be studied in a water tunnel using a 1:5
Question:
The drag characteristics of a torpedo are to be studied in a water tunnel using a 1:5 scale model. The tunnel operates with fresh water at \(20{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), whereas the prototype torpedo is to be used in seawater at \(15.6^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). To correctly simulate the behavior of the prototype moving with a velocity of \(30 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\), what velocity is required in the water tunnel?
