Aiming a 1.69 in diameter garden hose straight up, forms a “bubbler fountain” that you could easily drink from (but you shouldn’t because of bacteria, etc.). The water flows out the hose and down the sides. If the water has a density of 63.1 lbm/ft^3 and a viscosity of 0.0119 g/cm*s, what is the thickness of the water film (df) (in cm) if the flow rate of water is 6.42 in^3/s? For simplicity, assume the film is thin enough that you can use rectangular coordinates.
Crude oil with a bulk modulus of 2.35 GPa is leaking from a deep-sea well 2350 m below the surface of the ocean, where the water pressure is 2.38×10^7 Pa.
