A hose is a hollow tube designed to carry fluids from one location to another. Hoses are also sometimes called pipes (the word pipe usually refers to a rigid tube, whereas a hose is usually a flexible one), or more generally tubing. The shape of a hose is usually cylindrical (having a circular cross section).
A garden hose can be considered a type of simple machine known as a lever. When using a hose, the user applies force at one end to create water pressure, allowing the hose to direct the flow of water to a specific area. The hose itself acts as a lever that amplifies the force exerted, making it easier to transport water over a distance. However, it's important to note that while it has lever-like qualities, a garden hose is more accurately described as a tool rather than a classic simple machine like a lever, pulley, or inclined plane.
The short tube at the end of a hose is commonly referred to as a nozzle. Nozzles can be adjustable or fixed and are used to control the flow and direction of the liquid or gas being expelled from the hose. They are often found on garden hoses, fire hoses, and many other types of hoses for various applications.
The patented pocket hose, called the Dap Hose was invented by the Dap Company.
The two common causes for a toilet tank hose leak are the threads and the hose itself. Turn the water off, unscrew the hose, and wrap the threads with Teflon tape available at any hardware store. Reconnect the hose and turn the water back on. It it still leaks, consider replacing the hose as it may have a hole in it.
Not out of a garden hose, but with a nozzle that gives an atomized spray it can.
A 20' length of 4-inch hose can hold approximately 0.38 gallons of gasoline per foot. Therefore, 20 feet of this hose can hold around 7.6 gallons of gasoline.

When gasoline flows through a hose and nozzle, it can cause the movement of electrons between the gasoline and the materials making up the hose and nozzle. This transfer of electrons can create a static charge due to the friction and separation of materials.
A plumber typically uses a flexible and durable type of hose called a "PVC hose" for various plumbing tasks.

The most common hose used for drafting is a hard suction hose. This type of hose is typically 6" in diameter, come in 10' lengths and is made of a hard, yet flexible plastic/rubber/PVC.
No, Teflon-lined hoses are not suitable for gasoline due to Teflon's poor compatibility with hydrocarbons like gasoline. The hydrocarbons can cause the Teflon lining to deteriorate and potentially cause leaks or failure of the hose. It is important to use hoses specifically designed for handling gasoline.
