**Watering Flowers with a Garden Hose: Physics Questions**When I water flowers with my garden hose at a height of 1 m above the ground, the velocity of the water is 4.0 m/s.(a) What is the gauge pressure (total pressure minus atmospheric pressure) of the water coming into the hose at ground level?(b) What is the velocity of the water if I lift the hose to a height of 2 m off the ground to water some hanging plants?(c) What is the velocity of the water at a height of 1 m if I cover the hose with my hand, reducing the area by 50%?

Given that:Height of hose pipe, h=1 mVelcity of water: v=4.0 m/s
