How many liters per second is equal to 2.5 m3/sec?

1500 L/sec
2500 L/sec
3000 L/sec
4000 L/sec

The correct answer is: 2500 L/sec

To convert cubic meters per second (m³/sec) to liters per second (L/sec), it's essential to remember the relationship between these two units. One cubic meter is equivalent to 1,000 liters. Therefore, to convert from cubic meters to liters, you multiply the volume in cubic meters by 1,000. In this case, when converting 2.5 m³/sec to liters per second: 2.5 m³/sec × 1,000 L/m³ = 2,500 L/sec. This calculation shows that 2.5 cubic meters per second is indeed equal to 2,500 liters per second. Understanding unit conversions like this is crucial for water treatment operators, as many processes and measurements are based on volumetric flow rates in different units.
