a crop duster flying 140 mph, spraying a 70 foot swath--my quesion--how many acres per minute----second does he spray

Your question seems incomplete. What is the area of the swath? 70 x ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the spray comes out of the plane thru nozzles that are spraying a 70 foot swath or path

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you are spraying 111.3636 sq.ft. per minute

OpenStudy (anonymous):

about .002556

OpenStudy (anonymous):
