Question
**Problem:** The motor of your "dune buggy" is fueled by a gas line with a radius of \(3.40 \times 10^{-3}\) m and the fuel pump is rated at \(7.05 \times 10^{-2}\) kg/s. If the density of the gas you are using is 730 kg/m\(^3\), determine the speed at which gas travels through the fuel line.

**Solution:**
- Given:
  - Radius of the gas line: \(3.40 \times 10^{-3}\) m
  - Fuel pump rate: \(7.05 \times 10^{-2}\) kg/s
  - Density of the gas: 730 kg/m\(^3\)

\[ \text{Speed of gas } = \_\_\_\_ \, \text{m/s} \]
