According to information found in an old hydraulics book,

Chapter 1, Problem 1.14

(choose chapter or problem)

According to information found in an old hydraulics book, the energy loss per unit weight of fluid flowing through a nozzle connected to a hose can be estimated by the formula

               \(h = (0.04 \text{ to }0.09)(D/d)^4 V^2 /2g\)

where h is the energy loss per unit weight, D the hose diameter, d the nozzle tip diameter, V the fluid velocity in the hose, and g the acceleration of gravity. Do you think this equation is valid in any system of units? Explain.
