A ship 350 m long moves in sea water whose density is 1030 kg/m3 . A 1:120 model of this ship is to be tested in a wind tunnel. The velocity of the wind tunnel around the model is 35 m/s and the resistance of the model is 65 N. Determine the velocity and also the resistance of the ship in sea water. The density of air is given as 1.24 kg/m3 . Take the kinematic viscosity of air and sea water as 0.012 stokes and 0.018 stokes respectively.
