Water flows through a 7cm pipe at the rate of 4m/s.how many cm³ of water flow through the pipe in one second

Diameter of pipe is D = 7 cm.

Cross sectional area of pipe is A= pi.(D^2)/4 cm^2

A = pi*49/4 = 38.48 cm^2

Water flows at v = 4 m/s

Water flow rate is Q = Av = 38.48 * 4 = 153.94 cm^3/s

Q = 154 cm^3/s = 154 * 10^(-3) litres/s = 154 * 10^(-3)) / 60 litre/min

Q = 0.0025656 l/min

Sorry - multiplied by 1,000 instead of dividing by it.
