: is connected a cotton rubber lined fire hose 100 mm in diameter terminating to a 25 mm diameter nozzle. The nozzle is 2.5 m above the hydrant and 16 m above the pump. Assuming frictional losses of 3m from the pump to the hydrant, 2m in the hydrant, 10 m from the hydrant to the base of the nozzle, and the loss in the nozzle of 4 % of the velocity head in the jet, to what vertical height can the jet be thrown if the gage pressure right after the pump is 550 KPa?
