Problem 10:A fire hose has an inside diameter of4.5cm. Suppose such a hose carries a water flow of43L/s starting at a gauge pressure of1.65 106N/m2. The hose discharges through a nozzle having an inside diameter of2.8cm. Take the viscosity of water to be 1.005 10-3(N/m2)s. Randomized Variables

dh=4.5cm dn=2.8cm P=1.65 10^6 N/m^2

Q = 43L/s
