Volume flow rate and mass flow rate

[QUOTE="MNWO, post: 4984562, member: 525725"] [B]Hello there, so I have answered my question from fluid systems but the answer doesn't look right ;/ and I have no idea what have I done wrong. Can you please check and correct where it's wrong ? ;) here is the question: A pipe contains a gradually tapering section in which its diameter decreases from 410mm to 260mm. The pipe contains an incompressible fluid of density 1000kgm- 3 and runs full. If the flow velocity is 2ms in the smaller diameter, determine the velocity in the larger diameter, the volume flow rate and the mass flow rate. [/B] My calculations: A1=260mm=0.26m V1=2ms A2=410mm=0.41m V2=? Flow rate (Q)=A1 x V1 which is equal to A2 x V2 0.26 x 2=0.52 m/s 3 (metres per second cubed) V2= Q/A2 = 0.52/0.41 V2=1.26 m/s 3 mass flow rate (M)= Density x Q = 1000x 0.52 M=520 kg/s I would really aprreciate any help :) [/QUOTE]
