A 239.0 gallon/min volume of water flows through a pipe. If the velocity is 36.0 ft/sec, what is the diameter of the pipe D, in inches?
Added by Trevor M.
Step 1
To convert gallons per minute to cubic feet per second, we need to use the conversion factor 1 gallon = 0.1337 cubic feet. Flow rate in cubic feet per second = 239.0 gallons/min * 0.1337 cubic feet/gallon * (1 min/60 sec) Show more…
