A model car is scaled-down version of the prototype. All dimensions are at a scale of 1/4 and will be tested

A model car is scaled-down version of the prototype. All dimensions are at a scale of 1/4 and will be tested in a water tunnel at 80F. Assuming that the prototype is used at the same temperature, in air, and at a velocity of 100 ft/s. Determine the velocity at which the water tunnel should be operated (15 points).
