Question:

An airplane travels in air (p = 100 kPa, T = 10°C) at 150 m/s. If a one-eighth-scale model of the plane is tested in a wind tunnel at 25°C, what must the density of the air in the tunnel be so that both the Reynolds-number and the Mach-number criteria are satisfied? The speed of sound varies with the square root of the absolute temperature.
