The time taken for the water fountain to dispense 842.75 mL of water is 20.625 seconds

What is time?

Time can be defined as the measure of past, present or future events.

To calculate the time taken to dispense 842.75 mL of water, we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • F = V/t................ Equation 1

Where:

  • F  = Average flow rate of the fountain
  • V = Volume of the water
  • t = time.

Make t the subject of the equation.

  • t = V/F................ Equation 2

From the question,

Given:

  • F = 0.64 gallons per minutes
  • V = 842.75 mL = (842.75/1000)/(3.78541) gal = 0.22 gal.

Substitute these values into equation 2

  • t = 0.22/0.64
  • t =  0.34375 minutes.
  • t = (0.34375×60) =  20.625 seconds.

Hence, The time taken for the water fountain to dispense 842.75 mL of water, is 20.625 seconds.
