If the water stream strikes the building at B, determine the two possible distances s from the building. Part 2 Water is discharged from the hose with a speed of 40 ft/s. Determine the two possible angles the firefighter can hold the hose so that the water strikes the building at B. Take s = 20 ft.

Your design calls for a rotating head with a number of cylindrical plugs inserted into the hose opening. In a particular setting, the speed of the water passing around the plug is 3 times as large as the speed of the water in the hose. Determine the ratio of the plug radius (rplug) to the inside hose radius (rhose).arrow_forward

- A 5.40 kg object is released from rest while fully submerged in a liquid. The liquid displaced by the submerged object has a mass of 3.50 kg. How far does the object move in 0.300 s, assuming that it moves freely and that the drag force on it from the liquid is negligible? marrow_forwardDrag Force: A spherical particle of radius 5.9 cm and a mass of 229 g is moving through a fluid of the same density. (This means you can ignore the effects of gravity.) 1 The position of the particle is given by x (t) = In (1+ bvot), where x is its position and t is the elapsed time. The initial speed vo is 17.4 m/s, and the constant b is 0.4 m-1. (b) What is the velocity of the particle after 2.9 seconds?
