Oil (kinematic viscosity, υ oil = 1.0 × 10-6 m2/s) flows through a pipe of 0.5 m diameter with a velocity of 10 m/s. Water (kinematic viscosity, vw = 0.89 × 10-6 m2/s) is flowing through a model pipe of diameter 20 mm. For satisfying the dynamic similarity, the velocity of water (in m/s) is _______.

Correct Option: C
oil water
v = 1.0 × 10–5 m²/s v = 0.89 × 10– 6 m²/s
d = 0.5 m
d = 0.02 m
v = 10 m/sec
v =?
[Re](oil) = [Re](w)
= | ||
1.0 × 10-5 | 8.9 × 10-6 |
⇒ v = 22.25 m/s
