1 cup/s = 0.23658823651289498 l/s
1 l/s = 4.2267528375 cup/s
Example: convert 42 cup/s to l/s:
42 cup/s = 42 x 0.23658823651289498 = 9.936705933541589 l/s
Cup per second
Definition: A cup per second (cup/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate that measures the volume of a substance passing through a surface per unit of time. It represents the amount of volume, measured in cups, that flows every second.
History/origin: The 'cup' is a unit of volume primarily used in cooking and is part of the United States customary system of measurement. The 'per second' component indicates a rate of change over time. The precise origin can be linked to the standardization of kitchen measurements.
Current use: Cups per second is rarely used in formal scientific or engineering contexts due to the relatively large and imprecise nature of the 'cup' unit. It might be encountered in high-volume dispensing or filling operations where speed is critical.
Litre per second
Definition: Liters per second (L/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate. It represents the volume of a substance passing through a given point per unit of time, measured in liters per second.
History/origin: The liter (L) is a metric unit of volume. Its use dates back to the French Revolution. The 'per second' component makes it a measure of flow rate.
Current use: L/s is a frequently used unit for measuring fluid flow rates in various applications, including water supply systems, industrial processes, and environmental monitoring.
