An insect repellent spray bottle is attached to the end of a 1.7cm diameter garden hose.  Water from the hose goes through a 3.0 mm diameter constriction inside the top as shown in the image. The flow causes the pressure in the constricted area to drop, and the insect repellent is sucked up the tube 25 cm and mixed into the water stream. The insect repellent has a density of 1600 kg/m3. What is the minimum hose flow rate that will allow the insect repellent to be sucked up the tube and mixed with the stream? The water in the garden hose has a pressure of 50PSI
