A pump steadily draws water from a pond at a volumetric flow rate of 180 gal/min through a pipe having a 5 in. diameter inlet. The water is delivered through a hose terminated by a converging nozzle. The nozzle exit has a diameter of 2.6 in. and is located 35 ft above the pipe inlet. Water enters at 58°F, 14.7 psi and exits with no significant change in temperature or pressure. The magnitude of the rate of heat transfer from the pump to the surroundings is 5% of the power input. The acceleration of gravity is 32.2 ft/s2. Determine the velocity of the water at the exit in ft/s. Select one: a. 10.88 ft/s b. 89.87 ft/s c. 3.59 ft/s d. 67.92 ft/s
