Homework Statement


Air flows through two 8"x10" ducts that merge into a single 18"x14" duct. (Ducts are in 3D)
The average speed of air in each of the 8"x10" ducts is 30 ft/s.
What is the volume flow rate, of air in the 18"x14" section of the duct? Express the volume flow rate in ft^3/s
What is the average speed of air in the 18"x14" duct?
