A garden hose having with an internal diameter of 1.1 cm is connected to a (stationary) lawn sprinkler that consists merely of an container with 22 holes, each 0.15 cm in diameter. If the water in the hose has a speed of 0.95 m/s, at what speed does it leave the sprinkler holes

Respuesta :

Answer:

Water leaves the sprinkler at a speed of 2.322 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given internal diameter of the garden [tex]d_1=1.1cm[/tex]

Speed of water in the hose is [tex]v_1=0.95m/sec[/tex]

Number of holes n = 22

Diameter of each holes [tex]d_2=15cm[/tex]

According to continuity equation [tex]A_1v_1=A_2v_2[/tex]

[tex]d_1^2\times v_1=22\times d_2^2v_2[/tex]

[tex]1.1^2\times 0.95=22\times 0.15^2\times v_2[/tex]

[tex]v_2=2.322m/sec[/tex]

So water leaves the sprinkler at a speed of 2.322 m/sec
