3) (10 pts - Ch. 7) Alternative 1/10 scale diving sleds are being testing in a deep, freshwater column at 20C. The ideal prototype sled will fall at 0.5 m/s in 8C seawater (v = 1.436E-6 m/s). What is the required fall rate for the model sled in m/s if it is to duplicate the desired prototype? (hint - viscous forces govern)
