Quarts per second to Litres per hour conversion

How to convert quarts per second to litres per hour?

To convert quarts per second to liters per hour, you need to understand the conversion factors between these units. Here’s a step-by-step guide to perform the conversion:

1. Convert quarts to liters:

   • There are approximately 0.946353 liters in a quart.

2. Convert seconds to hours:

   • There are 3600 seconds in an hour.

Given: $1 \text{ quart/second}$

Conversion: $1 \text{ quart/second} = 1 \times 0.946353 \text{ liters/second}$

Next: $0.946353 \text{ liters/second} \times 3600 \text{ seconds/hour} = 3400.8708 \text{ liters/hour}$

So, $1 \text{ quart/second} \approx 3400.87 \text{ liters/hour}$.
