A long horizontal hose of diameter 3.4 cm is connected to a faucet. At the other end, there is a nozzle of diameter 1.8 cm. Water squirts from the nozzle at velocity 14 m/sec. Assume that the water has no viscosity or other form of energy dissipation. A) What is the velocity of the water in the hose ?
B) What is the pressure differential between the water in the hose and water in the nozzle ?
C) How long will it take to fill a tub of volume 120 liters with the hose ?

a) v₁ = 3.92 m / s , b)     ΔP =  = 9.0 10⁴ Pa, c)  t = 0.0297 s  

Explanation:

This is a fluid mechanics exercise

a) let's use the continuity equation

let's use index 1 for the hose and index 2 for the nozzle

        A₁ v₁ = A₂v₂

in area of a circle is

       A = π r² = π d² / 4

we substitute in the continuity equation

        π d₁² / 4 v₁ = π d₂² / 4 v₂

        d₁² v₁ = d₂² v₂

the speed of the water in the hose is v1

       v₁ = v₂ d₂² / d₁²

       v₁ = 14 (1.8 / 3.4)²

        v₁ = 3.92 m / s

b) they ask us for the pressure difference, for this we use Bernoulli's equation

       P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² + m g y₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂² + mg y2

as the hose is horizontal y₁ = y₂

       P₁ - P₂ = ½ ρ (v₂² - v₁²)

      ΔP = ½ 1000 (14² - 3.92²)

       ΔP = 90316.8 Pa = 9.0 10⁴ Pa

c) how long does a tub take to flat

the continuity equation is equal to the system flow

        Q = A₁v₁

        Q = V t

where V is the volume, let's equalize the equations

         V t = A₁ v₁

         t = A₁ v₁ / V

A₁ = π d₁² / 4

let's reduce it to SI units

         V = 120 l (1 m³ / 1000 l) = 0.120 m³

          d1 = 3.4 cm (1 m / 100cm) = 3.4 10⁻² m

let's substitute and calculate

         t = π d₁²/4   v1 / V

         t = π (3.4 10⁻²)²/4 3.92 / 0.120

         t = 0.0297 s

he kicked it 10 feet straight up into the air? i think this works.

im guessing the west of station b
