in SI units it is m3 / second

Also it can be in litres / second (LPS) Gallons per minute (GPM) is also another way of denoting it

What is a unit rate of power?

Power is the rate of flow or usage of energy. 1 Watt = 1 Joule per second


Is the unit of speed a basic unit or a derived unit?

It is a derived unit. It measure distance traveled per unit of time. For example meter per second or m/s. Speed or velocity as it is sometimes called is derived from the units for distance and time.


What units are used to measure mass flow rates?

Let us assume you want the flow rate of water from a pipe such as a garden hose . First, the flow rate must be constant . So don't change the position of the tap handle controlling the outward flow. You need 2 things. A clock with a second hand, and a container which has a known fluid volume, such as a kitchen measuring container (say 1/2Litre capacity. ) Now when the second hand is on 12 quickly let all the water flow into the 1/2 Litre container. When the container is perfectly full to the 1/2Litre marking , very quickly remove the container from the water source and at the same instant, take note of how many seconds and/or minutes it took to fill the container. Suppose it took 45 seconds , then the flow rate measured in 'Litre/ Minute' will be 1/2 Litre in 45/60 minutes. This is of course that same as 0.5 Litre per 0.75 minute which equals 0.5 divided by 0.75 Litre/ minute. Answer is therefore 0.6666 Litre/Minute. Flow rate is commonly measured using the units Litre/Minute . It is also often measured in Gallon/Minute, or Litre/Hour or Gallon/Hour. It depends how powerful the flow is . Flow rate of water out of a Reservoir can be measured in megalitres per minute. Sometimes it is measured in Cubic Feet/Minute. The choice of units is your choice but it will always involve a Volume unit and a Time unit.


What is the unit used to measure electric flow?

The SI unit for measuring an electric current is the ampere, which is the flow of electric charge across a surface at the rate of one coulombper second.

What is mass flow rate multiply volumetric flow rate?

Mass flow rate is the amount of mass passing through a given point per unit time, while volumetric flow rate is the volume of fluid passing through a given point per unit time. The mass flow rate is calculated by multiplying the volumetric flow rate by the fluid density at that point.


Calculate water flow?

To calculate water flow rate, you need to know the cross-sectional area of the pipe or channel through which the water is flowing, as well as the velocity of the water. The formula for calculating water flow rate is Q = A * V, where Q is the flow rate, A is the cross-sectional area, and V is the velocity of the water. Multiplying the area by the velocity will give you the flow rate.

What is the unit of electricity current flow?

The unit quantity of electricity is the Coulomb. The rate of electricity flow in coulombs per second is the Ampere, sometimes shortened to Amp. Note: current doesn't flow, instead current itself is a flow rate (flow of coulombs of charge per second.) When coulombs are flowing, the flow rate is measured in amperes.
