Question

A fish tank has dimensions 46 cm wide by 1.0 m long by 0.60 m high.

If the filter should process all the water in the tank once every 3.0 h, what should the flow speed be in the 3.0-cm-diameter input tube for the filter?

Answer 1

A fish tank has dimensions 46 cm wide by 1 m long by 0.60 m high.
