Will water flow more easily through a wide pipe or a narrow pipe?
it would flow more easily through a narrow pipe
Will adding another water heater boost the water pressure in the house in addition to giving more hot water?
No and yes. No, you won't get more water pressure. To do that you'll need to find out why the water pressure is low. Perhaps flow restriction, perhaps a poorly adjusted water pressure regulator, perhaps low pressure from the well/city water. But an additional water heater will certainly give you more hot water. It would be like putting in a LARGER water heater. In most cities the water pressure required is about 20 PSI. Small city's do not add pressure pumps to their system but use a gravity supply. That is why most places there is a pressure problem either build their water tanks taller or erect them on a hill.
What causes loss of water pressure?
All kinds of things can cause loss of pressure. We need real facts to figure out why- Please resubmit with more information about your water supply.
Head pressure of water?
Head pressure is created by a column (depth) of water in a container. Pipe is considered a container. Diameter is not a factor. The higher the column of water, the more psi it creates. Multiply column height of water by .434 to get psi of water.
Can you run a flexible hose for the refrigerator icewater maker instead of copper tubing And how long can this flexible hose be?
They were correct in saying that it can be as long as needed because of the low water pressure that an ice maker requires. It also makes your refrigerator more mobile inside your kitchen or other rooms, and the ladies of the house love that part of it. That is of course if they are the type that like changing rooms around to avoid the monatiny
Why is the rubber hose unable to bent when the tap is on?
Because - the pressure of the water inside the hose provides counter-pressure, making the hose more difficult to bend.
Why do you think diurectis are often prescribed as a treatment for high blood pressure?
Water creates pressure when it is present in the body. Lowering the amount of water in the blood through diuretics lowers blood pressure. Think of a garden hose with water running through it. If you shut off the end where the spout is, the pressure will increase in the hose, if you open it an let the water run out, the pressure inside the hose will drop. The same principle works in your body. If you have less water in it, by urinating more, your blood pressure would drop.
How many volts in 5kv genrator?
5kV means 5 kilovolts or 5,000 volts. Electricity is analogous to water flowing through a pipe. Voltage is water pressure, current is water flow. Resistance is the resistance of the hose to the flow of water. The larger the hose, the less resistance and the more flow you can move with the least amount of pressure.
Why does pressure decrease with increase in length?
Pressure effected by the volume of substance being pushed through. For instance, the longer the hose, the more water being pushed through=greater pressure. The shorter the distance the less water being pushed through=less pressure.
Why does putting your thumb over the end of the garden hose make the water go further?
because the pressure is greater, so the water comes out quicker with more velocity which makes it travel further =]
How much pressure can I a deck pressure washing put off?
I would approximate you could pressure wash your deck with a 35psi from your hose. However, it may be smart to check the size of your pressure hose and speak with the place you bought it from or instructions for more specifics.
Will water flow more easily through a wide pipe or a narrow pipe?
it would flow more easily through a narrow pipe
Why is water pressure greater at the bottom of the deep end of a pool?
The water pressure is greater at the deep end of a pool because there is more water on top of that which adds to the pressure. If there is more water, the pressure wil be higher because there is more water to put weight on it.
Is it true if you use a wider hose like 3 quarters you will get more pressure or does it depend on the psi of the house?
A wider hose will increase the volumn of flow but will not increase pressure. The pressure is determined by the amount of pressure delivered to the house. In some cases you can restrict the flow from a 3/4 hose and geta gradual increase at the site of the restriction but normal pressure will be reaquired in a very short distance.
How much water does a 3 inch hose hold?
you need more info than that. you will need to provide the length of the hose and the inside diameter of the hose to calculate the amount of water it will hold
What is the temperature of hot water from a hose in the sun?
It really depends by the atmosheric temperatur,once this is known the temperature of the water from the hose would be answered more accuratly.
What happens to the current of a closed circuit if the resistance increases and the voltage remains constant?
You can imagine this senario as so: Let's say you have a tank of pressurized water connected to a hose that you are using to water the garden. What happens if you increase the pressure in the tank? You probably can guess that this makes more water come out of the hose. The same is true of an electrical system: Increasing the voltage will make more current flow. Hope that answers you question!
