a nozzle with an area of 0.3 cm2 is attached to a garden hose with an area of 1.8 cm2. the flow rate through the nozzle is 0.18 l/s.



Answer :

A nozzle with an area of 0.3 cm² is attached to a garden hose with an area of 1.8 cm². The flow rate through the nozzle is 0.18 l/s and the flow rate through the garden hose is 0.108* 10⁻³m³/s.

We know that the equation of continuity as Q = A*v

From the above equation, the relation between flow rate and area can be written as Q₁A₂ = Q₂A₁

Given that, flow rate of the nozzle Q₁ = 0.18 l/s = 0.18*10⁻³ m³/s

flow rate of the garden hose Q₂ = ?

area of the nozzle A₁ = 0.3 cm² = 0.3*10⁻⁴ m²

area of the garden hose A₂ = 1.8 cm² = 1.8* 10⁻⁴ m²

Substitute the values in the above equation,

0.18* 10⁻⁴* 0.18*10⁻³ = 0.3*10⁻⁴* Q₂

0.18* 0.18* 10⁻³ = 0.3*Q₂

Q₂ = 0.108* 10⁻³m³/s
