Given in the question that,
Diameter
Hose delivering
We need to determine the amount of force required to hold a decimeter hose.
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
Through the nozzle, water is being forced forward, causing the hose to move backward. Pushing the hose forward is the only way to keep it constant. Newton's second law and the equation of continuity are used to find the force exerted on the hose. According to the equation of continuity, the product of the velocity of water flow and its area at the nozzle is equal to the product of the velocity of water flow and its area at the hose.
