Filling a Swimming Pool with a Garden Hose
A 1/2 in. (inside) diameter garden hose is used to fill a round swimming pool 7.18 m in diameter. How many days will it take to fill the pool to a depth of 1.52 m if water issues from the hose at a speed of 0.258 m/s? You do not need to enter the units.

A fire hose has an inside diameter of 6.40 cm. Suppose such a
hose carries a flow of 40.0 L/s starting at a gauge pressure of
1.62×106N/m2 . The hose goes 10.0 m up a ladder to a nozzle having
an inside diameter of 3.00 cm. Calculate the Reynolds numbers for
flow in the fire hose and nozzle to show that the flow in each must
be turbulent.

2. A garden hose attached to a nozzle is used to fill a 15-gal
bucket. The inner diameter of the hose is 1.5 cm, and it reduces to
0.8 cm at the nozzle exit. If it takes 50 s to fill the bucket with
water (density = 1 kg/L), determine
(a) the volume and mass flow rates of water through the hose,
and
(b) the average velocity of water at the nozzle exit.
