An ideal gas undergoes a reversible process in which the pressure varies linearly with volume. The conditions at the start (subscript $1$) and at the end (subscript $2$) of the process with usual notation are: $p_1 = 100 \: kPa$, $V_1 = 0.2 \: m^3$ ... $R=0.275\:kJ/kg-K$. The magnitude of the work required for the process (in $kJ$) is ________

Oil (kinematic viscosity, $v_{\text{oil}}=1.0\times 10^{-5} \:m^2/s$) flows through a pipe of $0.5$ $m$ diameter with a velocity of $10$ $m/s$. Water (kinematic viscosity, $v_w=0.89\times 10^{-6}\:m^2/s$) is flowing through a model pipe of diameter $20 \:mm$. For satisfying the dynamic similarity, the velocity of water (in $m/s$) is __________
