If an applicator doubles the travel speed of a spray rig from 4 MPH to 8 MPH while leaving nozzle size and pressure unchanged, what happens to the application volume (GPA)?

• [EPA-CORE-016] An applicator drives a spray tractor over a 300-foot test course. The travel time is exactly 41 seconds. What is the tractor ground speed in Miles Per Hour (MPH)? (Use formula: MPH = [Distance in feet × 60] / [Time in seconds × 88])
• [EPA-CORE-017] Using the standard broadcast calibration formula: GPA = (GPM × 5940) / (MPH × W), where W is nozzle spacing in inches.
