Final answer:
The question appears to ask for the average rate of water flow from a tub but lacks details needed for calculation. A full answer would require specific volume and time information. Separate examples provided for faucet flow rate calculations illustrate how such an average rate could be determined if appropriate data were available.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the average rate of water flow from the tub, you should consider the volume of water that leaves the tub in a given time period. However, the question in its current form lacks specific start and end times, as well as the necessary information to calculate the volume of water that has been lost. If the question provided these details, we would use the formula:
\(\text{Average Rate of Flow} = \frac{\text{Volume of Water (in cm}^3\text{)}}{\text{Time (in seconds)}}\)
Without these details, we can't perform the specific calculation, but we can still address part of the provided exercise from the reference:
(a) To calculate the flow rate in cm³/s for a faucet, use the formula:
\(\text{Flow Rate} = \text{Area} \times \text{Velocity}\)
First, calculate the area of the faucet's stream using the diameter:
\(\text{Area} = \pi \times (\frac{\text{Diameter}}{2})^2\)
Then, convert the area to cm² and multiply by the velocity given in m/s (converted to cm/s) to find the flow rate:
\(\text{Flow Rate} = \pi \times (\frac{1.80}{2})^2 \times (0.500 \times 100)\)
For (b), you would have to consider the principles of fluid dynamics and continuity equation, which falls outside the specific topic of average rate calculation covered here.
