A typical ceiling fan running at high speed has an airflow of about 1.85 ✕ 103 ft3/min, meaning that about 1.85 ✕ 103 cubic feet of air move over the fan blades each minute. Determine the fan's airflow in m3/s.

0.8726  

Explanation:

We are to convert 1.85 x to

First, let us convert the numerator from ft3 to m3

1 ft3 = 0.0283 m3

Hence,

1.85 x ft3 = 1.85 x x 0.0283 m3

     = 52.355 m3

Now, let us convert the denominator from minutes to seconds

1 min = 60 sec

Therefore;

1.85 x = 52.355/60  

        = 0.8726
