6. [1/2 Points] DETAILS PREVIOUS ANSWERS OSCOLPHYS2016 12.3.P.028. MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEACHER PRACTICE ANOTHER A sump pump (used to drain water from the basement of houses built below the water table) is draining a flooded basement at the rate of 0.850 L/s, with an output pressure of $2.00 \times 10^5$ H/m$^2$. You may neglect frictional losses in both parts of this problem. (a) The water enters a hose with a 3.00 cm inside diameter and rises 3.20 m above the pump. What is its pressure (in N/m$^2$) at this point? 1.69e5 N/m$^2$ (b) The hose goes over the foundation wall, losing 1.20 m in height, and widens to 4.00 cm diameter. What is the pressure now (in N/m$^2$)? N/m$^2$ Additional Materials Reading

Water is pumped steadily out of a flooded basement at a speed of 5.0 m/s through a uniform hose of radius 1.0 cm. The hose passes out through a window 3.0 m above the waterline. What is the power of the pump? [Hint: Find the rate of mass flow and use the knowledge that the work done (ΔW) = (Δm)gh + 1/2 (Δm)v^2].

Water circulates throughout a house in a plumbing system. The water is pumped at a speed of 0.500m/s through a 4.00cm diameter pipe in the basement under a pressure of 3.00atm. a. What is the flow speed in a 2.60cm diameter pipe on the second floor 5.00m above? Assume the pipes do not divide into branches. b. What is pressure in the pipe on the second floor?

Water flows with a volume flow rate of $1.50 \mathrm{~m}^{3} / \mathrm{s}$ in a pipe. Find the water speed where the pipe radius is $0.500 \mathrm{~m}$.
