ANSWER:
Solution 13HP
Step 1 of 3
We have to find the mass flow rate of water and the time it takes to fill the pool.
The mass flow rate of water through the garden hose can be found using the expression.
Where,
density of water = 1000 kg/m3
velocity = 2 m/s
cross sectional areas of hose
= in m2
diameter = 2.5 cm
Thus,
