3. A 1/49 scale model i.e., \ = 1/49 of a proposed dam is used to predict prototype flow conditions. (a) If the prototype discharge over the spillway is 15,000 m/s, what water flow should be established in the model? (b) If a velocity of 1.2 m/s is measured at a point in the model, what will be the velocity at a corresponding point in the prototype? (c) If the model dam fails over a period of 1 hour, how long it will take for the prototype to fail?
