A typical ceiling fan running at high speed has an airflow of about 1.85 ✕ 10^3 ft^3/min, meaning that about 1.85 ✕ 10^3 cubic feet of air move over the fan blades each minute.

Determine the fan's airflow in m^3/s.

Answer:

0.83 m³/s  

Explanation:

The speed of the airflow is given as;

             1.85 x 10³ ft³/min

Now we are to express this unit in m³/s  

    1ft  = 0.3m

    60s  = 1 min

So;

  1.85 x 10³  x ft³ x [tex]\frac{1}{min}[/tex] x [tex]\frac{(0.3m)^{3} }{ft^{3} }[/tex] x [tex]\frac{1min}{60s}[/tex]  

    = 0.83 m³/s
