"At 195 miles long, and with 7,325 miles of coastline, the Chesapeake Bay is the largest and most complex estuary in the United States. Though long and wide (30 miles wide at the Potomac River), the bay is very shallow, with an average depth of only 28 feet." The Bay's maximum depth is 174 ft. The hydraulic model of the Chesapeake Bay was built with a model length ratio Lr=1/1000

a. How wide was the model Bay [ft] at the Potomac River?
b. The Bay Bridge is 4.3 miles long; how long was it in the model [ft]?
c. If the hydraulic model occupied about 8 acres, approximately what is the real-world (prototype) area represented by the model [square miles]?
d. At this scale, what would be the average depth and maximum depth of the model Bay? [give answers in both ft and inches)
