Question

A garden hose is attached to a water faucet at one end and a spray nozzle at the other end. The water faucet is turned on, but the nozzle is off so that no water flows through the hose. The hose lies horizontally on the ground, and a stream of water sprays vertically out of a small leak to a height of 0.84 m. What is the pressure inside the hose?

Answer 1

Explanation:

P = h(rho)g

Where P is the pressure of water, h is the height, (rho) is the density of water and g is the acceleration due to gravity

P = 0.84m × 997kg/m3 × 9.81m/s-2

P =
