Question:

A ship \(120 \mathrm{~m}\) long moves through freshwater at \(15^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) at \(32 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}\). A 1:100 model of this ship is to be tested in a towing basin containing a liquid of specilic gravity 0.92 . What viscosity must this liquid have for both Reynolds' and Froude's laws to be satisfied? At what velocity must the model be towed? What propulsive force on the ship corresponds to a towing force of \(9 \mathrm{~N}\) in the model?
