A gas flows through a square conduit. At one point along the conduit, the conduit sides are 0.100 m, the velocity is 7.55 m/s, and the gas's mass density is (for its pressure and temperature) 1.09 kg/m^3. At a second point, the conduit sides are 0.250 m, and the velocity is 2.02 m/s. Find the (a) mass flow rate (kg/s) of the gas and (b) its mass density (kg/m^3) at the second point.

Question
A gas flows through a square conduit. At one point along the
conduit, the conduit sides are 0.100 m, the velocity is 7.55 m/s, and
the gas's mass density is (for its pressure and temperature) 1.09
kg/m^3. At a second point, the conduit sides are 0.250 m, and the
velocity is 2.02 m/s. Find the (a) mass flow rate (kg/s) of the gas and
(b) its mass density (kg/m^3) at the second point.
