Afountain sends a stream of water straight up into the air to a maximum height of 5.60 m. the effective area of the pipe feeding the fountain is 4.77 x 10-4 m2. neglecting air resistance and any viscous effects, determine how many gallons per minute are being used by the fountain. (1 gal = 3.79 x 10-3 m3)
