The rate at which matter enters a fluid-filled tube open at both ends must equal the rate at which matter exits the tube.
The rate at which matter enters a fluid-filled tube open at both ends must equal the rate at which matter exits the tube.
The rate at which matter flows into a location is proportional to the cross-sectional area of the flow and the speed at which the fluid flows.
