Answer:

31.6 m/s

Explanation:

Mass is conserved, so the mass flow at the outlet of the pump equals the mass flow at the nozzle.

m₁ = m₂

ρQ₁ = ρQ₂

Q₁ = Q₂

v₁A₁ = v₂A₂

v₁ πd₁²/4 = v₂ πd₂²/4

v₁ d₁² = v₂ d₂²

Now use Bernoulli equation:

P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² + ρgh₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂² + ρgh₂

Since h₁ = 0 and P₂ = 0:

P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² = ½ ρ v₂² + ρgh₂

Writing v₁ in terms of v₂:

P₁ + ½ ρ (v₂ d₂²/d₁²)² = ½ ρ v₂² + ρgh₂

P₁ + ½ ρ (d₂/d₁)⁴ v₂² = ½ ρ v₂² + ρgh₂

P₁ − ρgh₂ = ½ ρ (1 − (d₂/d₁)⁴) v₂²

Plugging in values:

579,160 Pa − (1000 kg/m³)(9.8 m/s²)(15 m) = ½ (1000 kg/m³) (1 − (1.99 in / 3.28 in)⁴) v₂²

v₂ = 31.6 m/s
