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 = 1.21 x 10-2 cm²/s, Vair = 1.64 x 10-1 cm²/s and Psea water = 1027 kg/m³. Pair = 1.34 [Take Vsea water kg/m³]

An airfoil of surface area 0.1 m² is tested for lift L in a wind tunnel. (Conditions can be considered as incompressible flow.) At an angle of attack of 5 °, with standard air density 1.22 kg/m³, at a speed of 30m/sec, the lift is measured to be 3.2 kgf. What is the lift coefficient? For a prototype wing of area 10 m², what is the approximate lift at an air speed of 160 kmph at the same angle of attack of 5 °?
A family is skating. The father (95 kg) skates at 8.2 m/s and collides and sticks to the mother (65kg), who was initially moving at 5.5 m/s and at 45° with respect to the father’s velocity. The pair then collides with their daughter (25 kg), who was stationary, and the three slides off together. What is their final velocity?

WILEY 8.51 PLUS An experiment is being designed to measure aerodynamic forces on a building. The model is a 1/500 scale replica of the prototype. The wind velocity on the prototype is 47 ft/s, and the density is 0.0024 slugs/ft'. The maximum velocity in the wind tunnel is 300 ft/s. The viscosity of the air flowing for the model and the prototype is the same. Find the density needed in the wind tunnel for dynamic similarity. A force of 50 lbf is measured on the model.

A 10.4-Mg truck is resting on the deck of a barge which displaces 321 Mg and is at rest in still water. If the truck starts and drives toward the bow at a speed relative to the barge vrel = 7.3 km/h, calculate the speed v of the barge. The resistance to the motion of the barge through the water is negligible at low speeds. l'rel = 7.3 km/h 10.4 Mg 321 Mg Answer: v = i km/h
