Flow Velocity of Water Entering Tank given Cross-section Area of Tank Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Flow Velocity = Discharge/Cross-Sectional Area
Vf = Q/Acs
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Flow Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Flow Velocity is the velocity of the flow of any fluid.
Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid.
Cross-Sectional Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - Cross-Sectional Area is the area of a two-dimensional shape that is obtained when a three-dimensional shape is sliced perpendicular to some specified axis at a point.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Discharge: 1.01 Cubic Meter per Second --> 1.01 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Cross-Sectional Area: 13 Square Meter --> 13 Square Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Vf = Q/Acs --> 1.01/13
Evaluating ... ...
Vf = 0.0776923076923077
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.0776923076923077 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
0.0776923076923077 0.077692 Meter per Second <-- Flow Velocity
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
