A garden hose is to be used as the return line in a waterfall display at a mall. In order to select the proper pump, you need to know the roughness height inside the garden hose. Unfortunately, roughness information is not supplied by the hose manufacturer. So you devise a simple experiment to measure the roughness. The hose is attached to the drain of an above-ground swimming pool, the surface of which is 3.0 m above the hose outlet. You estimate the minor loss coefficient of the entrance region as 0.5, and the drain valve has a minor loss equivalent length of 200 diameters when fully open. Using a bucket and stopwatch, you open the valve and measure the flow rate to be 2.0 10- 4 m3 /s for a hose that is 10.0 m long and has an inside diameter of 1.50 cm. Estimate the roughness height in mm inside the hose.
