Suppose you have a 8.6 cm diameter fire hose with a 3.8 cm diameter nozzle. Calculate the pressure drop due to the Bernoulli effect as water enters the nozzle from the hose at the rate of 40.0 L/s. Take 1.00 × 103 kg/m3 for the density of the water.  To what maximum height, in meters, above the nozzle can this water rise? (The actual height will be significantly smaller due to air resistance.)
