Cubic Millimeters per second to Teaspoons per second conversion

What is Cubic millimeters per second?

Cubic millimeters per second measures amount of fluid passes though a cross-sectional area. In short, it measures flow rate.

Flow rate can be calculated using following formula. Please note that $t$ is in seconds and $Q$'s unit of measure is ft^3/h.

$$Q = \frac{V}{t} = \frac{A*d}{t}$$

$Q$ - Flow rate
$V$ - Volume (Cubic millimeters)
$t$ - Time in second $A$ - Cross-sectional area
$d$ - Distance the fluid traveled during the time $t$

For more in-depth understanding of the flow rate read Flow Rate and Its Relation to Velocity from LibreTexts Physics website.

What is teaspoons per second?

Teaspoons (tsp) are a unit of measurement for volume, typically used to measure liquids or dry ingredients in cooking and other applications. When considering the concept of "teaspoons per second" (tsp/s), it's essential to understand that it describes a rate of change of volume.

A teaspoon is a small unit of volume, equivalent to 5 milliliters (mL) in the metric system. Thus, teaspoons per second represents how fast the volume of something is increasing or decreasing over time, specifically measured in teaspoons.

To put this into perspective:

• A typical human heartbeat adds about 1-2 teaspoons of blood to the heart each minute.
• In the context of measuring liquids for cooking, the rate at which ingredients are added might be given in teaspoons per second if the instruction is precise and aimed at achieving a specific result quickly.

However, "teaspoons per second" as a unit doesn't have direct practical applications in most scientific or engineering contexts because it's too small and specific. More commonly used units of measurement for rates of change include grams per minute (g/min), kilograms per hour (kg/h), liters per minute (L/min), etc., depending on what is being measured.

In summary, teaspoons per second can be considered a unit of measurement for volume rate changes that might be relevant in very specific contexts, especially those involving small volumes and precise measurements.
