The amount of mass that flows through something per unit of time is called
A) mass moment of inertia.
B) volumetric flow rate.
C) mass flow rate.
D) none of the above.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mass flow rate is the amount of mass that flows through something per unit of time, measured in kilograms per second (kg/s) or other appropriate units. Mass moment of inertia is a property of an object related to its rotation, while volumetric flow rate is the amount of volume that flows through something per unit of time. Therefore, the correct choice is C.
