A 20-0 litre bucket can be filled with water using a water hose 3-00 cm in diameter in 2 minutes. Calculate the speed with which the water leaves the hose.

Answer»

Solution : Volume of water FLOWING PER second `= ( 20 xx 10 ^(-3) m^(3))/( 2 xx 60 s) `
` "" = 1.67 xx 10 ^(-4) m^(3)//s`
Radius of the hose ` = r= 1.5 cm = 0.015 m`
Speed of water flow `= v = ? `
` "" AV= 1.67 xx 10 ^(-4)`
`"" v= (1.67 xx 10 ^(-4))/(pi r ^(2)) = (1.67 xx 10 ^(-4))/( 3.14 xx (0.015)^(2))`
`"" v= 0.24 m//s`
