Cake Density using Volume of Wet Cake Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Cake Density = (Wet Cake Rate/Volume of Wet Cake)
ρ_c = (W_r/V_w)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Cake Density - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Cake Density is defined as mass per unit volume of cake.
Wet Cake Rate - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - Wet Cake Rate is defined as weight of wet cake per unit time.
Volume of Wet Cake - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Volume of Wet Cake refers to the volume occupied by the solid material (often referred to as "cake") that remains after the liquid phase has been removed.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Wet Cake Rate: 60 Pound per Hour --> 0.00755987283350059 Kilogram per Second (Check conversion here)
Volume of Wet Cake: 15 Cubic Foot per Hour --> 0.000117986860801416 Cubic Meter per Second (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

ρ_c = (W_r/V_w) --> (0.00755987283350059/0.000117986860801416)

Evaluating ... ...

ρ_c = 64.0738534964892

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

64.0738534964892 Kilogram per Cubic Meter -->4 Pound per Cubic Foot (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

4 Pound per Cubic Foot <-- Cake Density

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)
