A fire truck raises its bucket so that a firefighter can spray water on the fire from above. The building sits on a large property. The truck must park far away 33.0 meters. The bucket carrying the firefighter holding the hose can be raised to a height of 9.00 meters. Water leaves the hose T 20.0 m/s. If the hose is held so that it sprays water horizontally from this height is the water able to reach the house?

A landscape architect is planning an artificial waterfall in a city park. Water flowing at 0.750 m/s leaves the end of a horizontal channel at the top of a vertical wall h = 2.35 m high and falls into a pool (Fig. P3.54). (a) How far from the wall will the water land? Will the space behind the waterfall be wide enough for a pedestrian walkway? (b) To sell her plan to the city council, the architect wants to build a model to standard scale, one-twelfth actual size. How fast should the water flow in the channel in the model? Figure P3.54
A stream of water gushes from an open pipe at an angle of 15o from the horizontal. If water comes out of the pipe at a speed of 15 m/s, how far from the pipe will the water land?
You hold a hose at waist height and spray water horizontally with it. The hose nozzle has a diameter of 1.80 cm, and the water splashes on the ground a distance of 0.950 m horizontally from the nozzle. If you constrict the nozzle to a diameter of 0.750 cm, how far from the nozzle, horizontally, will the water travel before it hits the ground?
You’re holding a hose at waist height and spraying water horizontally with it. The hose nozzle has a diameter of 1.80 cm, and the water splashes on the ground a distance of 0.970 m horizontally from the nozzle. Suppose you now constrict the nozzle to a diameter of 0.750 cm; how far horizontally from the nozzle will the water travel before hitting the ground? (Ignore air resistance.)
A cup is a cylinder with a diameter of 9.87cm and is 30cm tall. The hole is 1.44 from the bottom of the cup and has a diameter of 0.254cm. The cup sits at the edge of a 0.912m tall table. A.) Find the velocity of the water leaving the hole when the cup is full. B.) How far away from the table does the water hit the floor?
A thin stream of water flows smoothly from a faucet and falls straight down. At one point, the water is flowing at a speed of ?1=1.71 m/s . At a lower point, the diameter of the stream has decreased by a factor of 0.787 . What is the vertical distance ℎbetween these two points?
A thin stream of water flows smoothly from a faucet and falls straight down. At one point, the water is flowing at a speed of v1=1.63 m/s . At a lower point, the diameter of the stream has decreased by a factor of 0.769. What is the vertical distance h between these two points?
At what horizontal distance d from the building base, where should the fireman place the hose for the water to reach its maximum height as it strikes the building? Express this distance, d, in terms of v0, θ, and g.
A horizontal channel is cut into the side of a concrete pool, so that water flows out at a rate of 1.71 m/s, and then falls into a second pool. The vertical distance between the bottom of the channel and the top of the second pool is h = 3.30 m (see figure, image ). A woman standing on a walkway in front of a flow of water is shown. The water flows from an elevated surface, which is to the left of the woman and has height h above the walkway, and lands in a pool to her right. The walkway is in the space between where the flow originates and the pool. (a) A walkway between the upper and lower pools is 1 m wide. Will the water hit the walkway? Answer:Yes or No (b) A scale model of the two pools and walkway is one-seventeenth the actual size. What must the minimum speed (in m/s) of the water leaving the channel be so that the model walkway stays dry? Answer: ____________m/s You are working as an assistant to a landscape architect, who is planning an artificial…

Is it possible for water to have an angle of contact as high as 160 degree ? If so, when?
The cone-shaped water tank with its top inverted downwards has a radius of 4 m and a height of 12 m. Water flows from the tank at a speed of 310 m3/min through the hole in the bottom of the cone. According to this, find the rate of change in the radius of the water when the height of the water is 3 m from the hole. A) NONE B) 3 C) 3/2 D) 1 E) 1/2
