Question

A garden hose with a diameter of 2.3 cm is used to fill a bucket, which has a volume of 0.11 cubic meters. It takes 1.8 minutes to fill. An adjustable nozzle is attached to the hose to decrease the diameter of the opening, which increases the speed of the water. The hose is held level to the ground at a height of 1.0 meters, and the diameter of the nozzle is decreased until a flower bed 2.6 meters away is reached (e) What is the volume flow rate of the water through the nozzle (in m3/s) when the diameter is 2.3 cm? m3/s (b) What is the speed (in m/s) of the water coming out of the hose? m/s (e) What does the speed of the water coming out of the hose need to be (in m/s) to reach the flower bed 2.6 meters away? m/s () What is the diameter of the nozzle (in cm) needed to reach the flower bed? cm
