because you force it into a smaller space therefore you increase the pressure

What change in the stream would cause pebbles to be deposited farther offshore?
A greater volume of water would cause this.
A meander generally characterizes which type of stream steep stream a young stream a narrow stream or a mature stream?
A mature stream.
What happens when the speed of a stream increases?
Things that would cause a stream to move faster would be how large the stream is, how much material is in the stream and how much of a slope the stream is at. Things blocking the stream would also cause it to move slower.
How do you Use the word jet stream in a sentence?
The small aircraft was really jolted when it entered the jet stream.
What get carried away with sediment?
the stream load rock,soil,etc.the stream load rock,soil,etc.
What is exhaust velocity?
The velocity of gaseous or other particles in the exhaust stream of the nozzle of a reaction engine, relative to the nozzle.
What determines the direction of a PWC will travel when the steering control is moved?
Stream of water from jet nozzle
When would you adjust a fire hose nozzle to provide a solid stream of water?
Some of the advantages of solid streams include:The ability to propel water farther than other types of streams.Has more penetration power than other types of streams.Less prone to clogging with debris.
What does jet stand for?
a. A high-velocity fluid stream forced under pressure out of a small-diameter opening or nozzle. b. An outlet, such as a nozzle, used for emitting such a stream. c. Something emitted in or as if in a high-velocity fluid stream: "such myriad and such vivid jets of images" Henry Roth. d. A jet-propelled vehicle, especially a jet-propelled aircraft. e. A jet engine.
Which sediments would a stream carry at 5 cm?
In a stream, heavy sediments settle quickly and finer sediments stay suspended in the water and get carried down stream farther, even as the stream shrinks in size.
Is one of the effects of El Nino that the jet stream shifts farther north?
Possibly...
Which of these words is an acronym for how to use a fire extinguisher?
PASS Pull pin Aim nozzle Squeeze trigger Sweep stream across base of fire
What kind of motion should you impact to the nozzle of a garden hose so that the resulting stream of water approximates a sine curve?
A periodic up-and-down motion.
Why does air rush into a vacuum cleaner nozzle?
To understand why air rushes into a vacuum cleaner nozzle we need to trace air flow in the machine. Let's do that. The motor in a vacuum cleaner spins a fan, and the fan moves air. The air intake for the fan is connected to ducting that is routed to the nozzle. As the fan forces air out in its exhaust stream, it creates low pressure on the suction side of the fan. This low pressure (a partial vacuum) is felt along the air path to the nozzle. At the nozzle, outside air pressure forces air into the ducting where air pressure is lower. The moving air has picked up debris and carries it along. That debris ends up in a bag or filtered dirt canister or someplace else where it can accumulate and be collected for disposal. This applies to machines that have bags or filters to get the debris out of the air stream before it goes through the motor to keep it cool. Some machines isolate the motor from the air stream created by the fan, and the motor is cooled by another fan. These "direct" vacuums operate in a way that sees the air stream and the debris pass through the fan and be driven into a bag. The operation of the fan has created a low pressure area along the ducting between it (the fan) and the nozzle. Outside air pressure, being greater than the low pressure created by the fan and ducted to the nozzle, forces air into the nozzle.
What change in the stream would cause pebbles to be deposited farther offshore?
A greater volume of water would cause this.
What would the pump pressure be for the master stream flowing a fog nozzle from the top of the apparatus?
Depending in the hydrant suction, pump pressure should be about 80-100 psi
What determines the direction a PWC will travel when steering control is moved?
What determines the direction a PWC will travel? It's easy! The angle of the rudder!
