Water flowing through a garden hose of diameter 2.75 cm fills a 20.0 L bucket in 1.40 min. (a) What is the speed of the water leaving the end of the hose?   m/s (b) A nozzle is now attached to the end of the hose. If the nozzle diameter is one-third the diameter of the hose, what is the speed of the water leaving the nozzle?   m/s

What gauge pressure is required in the city water mains for a stream from a fire hose connected to the mains to reach a vertical height of 15.0 m? (Assume that the mains have a much larger diameter than the fire hose.) Why is your P2 equal to zero atm, when it is actually supposed to be 1atm since at this point in the water is exposed to air pressure. Is air pressure not 1atm?

A firefighter mounts the nozzle of his fire hose a distance 36.9 m away from the edge of a burning building so that it sprays from ground level at a 45° angle above the horizontal. After quenching a hotspot at a height of 9.45 m, the firefighter adjusts the nozzle diameter so that the water hits the building at a height of 17.1 m. By what factor was the nozzle diameter changed? Assume that the flow rate of water through...

(a) What is the pressure drop (in N/m2) due to the Bernoulli effect as water goes into a 3.50 cm diameter nozzle from a 9.10 cm diameter fire hose while carrying a flow of 34.0 L/s? Answer is in unit N/m2 (b) To what maximum height (in m) above the nozzle can this water rise? (The actual height will be significantly smaller due to air resistance.) Answer is in unit m

A student fills a tank of radius .15m with water to a height of .5m and pokes a small, 1.0 cm diameter hole at a distance 0.03m from the bottom of the tank. The water flows out of the small hole into an empty, 0.2 m diameter container placed below the tank.  The student uses a garden hose to keep the water level in the tank at the original height. What is the velocity of the water as it leaves the...

An irrigation system has a 2.5 cm diameter hose, which shoots water at 60 ° from the horizontal, at 5.5 m / s, and is placed on the ground. If we think that each droplet moves like a projectile, calculate: a- the maximum height that each droplet rises b- the time it takes to reach its maximum height c- the horizontal reach of the jet measured from the hose pistil
