Fire hoses used in major structural fires have an inside diameter of 6.40 cm.
Suppose such a hose carries an inital flow of 40.0 L/s at ground level, starting at
a gauge pressure of 1.62 x 106 N/m2. The hose rises up 10.0 m along a ladder
to a nozzle having an inside diamter of 3.00 cm. (Hint use Bernoulliʻs equation)

1)Draw a diagram of what is happening?

2)What is the speed at v1 and v2 in m/s?

3)What is the pressure in the nozzle at p2?

Fire hoses used in major structure fires have inside diameters of 2.500 in (1 in = 2.54 cm). The nozzle of the fire hose have an inside diameter of 1.200 in. When firefighters are fighting a fire 2020.007 cm above the ground, the pressure in the nozzle is less than at ground level. When measured, the gauge pressure in the nozzle is 0.000 Pa. (a) How are the firefighters able to fight a fire with zero water pressure? Explain your...
