Residents of a certain town are happy because a fountain is to be designed for the park. A nozzle diameter of 50 mm is chosen and the water velocity at the nozzle will be 8.5 m/s. (a) Calculate the height (m) to which the water will rise. The jet passes through a circular opening 2 m above the nozzle. (b) Calculate the diameter (mm) of the opening so that the jet just passes through without interference.

Fire safety

Fire safety is a new domain emerged in the early 90s to enable the design of buildings, structures, and infrastructure against destruction through fire. It also includes the provisions of building codes. This field is mostly associated with the design and efficient planning of a building, to reduce the destruction caused by fire. The branch of engineering that deals with it for the safety of the buildings from destruction of fire, is known as fire safety engineering.
