A model of an airplane wing is tested in a wind tunnel. The model wing has an 18-in. chord, and the prototype has a 4-ft chord moving at 250 mph. Assuming the air in the wind tunnel is at atmospheric pressure, at what velocity should wind tunnel tests be conducted so that the Reynolds number of the model is the same as that of the prototype?
