Question

Transcribed Image Text:1. (a)
The motion of a floating vessel through the surrounding fluid results in
a drag force D which is thought to depend upon the vessel's speed v,
its length I, the density p and dynamic viscosity μ of the fluid and the
acceleration due to gravity g.
Show that:-
D = pv²1² (1)
(b)
In order to predict the drag on a full scale 50m long ship traveling at
7m/s in sea water at 5°C of density 1027.7225 kg/m³ and viscosity
1.62 x 103 Pa.s, a model 3m long is tested in a liquid of density
805 kg/m³.
What speed does the model need to be tested at and what is the
required viscosity of the liquid?
