Water at 15°C (rho = 999.1 kg/m^3) from a garden hose fills a 1.5-L container in 2.5 s. Assume that the volume flow rate, temperature, and density of water are constant over the measured time.
1. Calculate the volume flow rate in liters per minute (Lpm).
The volume flow rate is _______ Lpm.

Respuesta :

Answer:

36 Lpm

Explanation:

We can calculate the volumetric flow rate with conversion factors. We have the volume and we have the time. This is a simple calculation:

[tex]=1.5/2.5=0.6[/tex]

Which is 0.5 L/s. We must convert s to min. We know that 1 min has 60 seconds, so 23 multiply 0.6 by 60:

[tex]=0.6\cdot{60}=36[/tex]

The volume flow rate is equal to 36 Lpm
