A pump brings underground water up to ground level. The water flow is measured in litres per minute.The pump fills an 18 litre bucket in 7 seconds.what is the speed of the pump flow

18/7 = L per sec. multiply that by 60 sec.

To determine the speed of the pump flow, we first need to convert the time taken to fill the bucket into minutes.

Given:
Time taken to fill the bucket = 7 seconds

To convert seconds to minutes, we divide the time by 60:
7 seconds รท 60 = 0.1167 minutes (approximately)

Now, we can calculate the flow rate of the pump:

Flow rate = Volume / Time

Given:
Volume of the bucket = 18 litres
Time taken to fill the bucket = 0.1167 minutes

Flow rate = 18 litres / 0.1167 minutes

Dividing 18 by 0.1167 gives us approximately:
154.3443 litres per minute

Therefore, the speed of the pump flow is approximately 154.3443 litres per minute.
