What is the friction loss in 100feet of 5 inch fire hose?
It depends on flow. 2 PSI for 500 GPM 8 PSI for 1000 GPM 18 PSI for 1500 GPM 32 PSI for 2000 GPM This is per 100' ft If your flows are big, ie. defensive conditions, you must relay for anything over a couple hundred feet in length. Capt. Ridgeway Tumwater Fire

If it takes 45mins to fill a bucket with water from hose 1 and it takes 30mins to fill another bucket from hose 2 How long would it take to fill a bucket using hose 1 and 2 at the same time?
Assuming the buckets are identical... Hose 1 fills 1/45 per minute and hose 2 fills 1/30 per minute, so together in one minute they would fill 1/45 + 1/30 ie 5/90 or 1/18, ie the bucket would be filled in 18 minutes.
How much does it cost to run a water hose for 1 hour?
This will depend on where you live and the cost of water in that region. It will also depend on how hard the hose is turn on and how much water is running from it. For example, if the hose is spraying water at a rate of one litre per second, and the cost of water in your region is one dollar per litre, then it will cost sixty dollars a minute and a total of $3600 for the full hour.

What is the fire hose friction loss per 50 ft and 100 ft?
Friction loss is one of the things we use that's critical when pumping a fire truck with crosslays/hose off the truck. The most common formula runs off 100ft sections in the following size/FL format: 1.75 hose (crosslay/jump line): ~13.5 PSI loss per 100' section 2.5" hose (blitz line): ~18 PSI loss per 100' section 5" hose: .08 PSI loss per 100' section All rates are based on your typical flow rate in GPM's...however the more gallonage the more friction loss. There is an accepted standard for GPM and friction loss: 1.5" hose 100GPM at 30PSI per 100' 1.75" hose 150 GPM at 32 PSI per 100'
Which as more resistance a garden hose or a fire?
Difficult to say. Hydraulic resistance is proportional to diameter as well as length and velocity. Water moving very slowly in a short length of either type of hose would have negligible resistance. The more likely answer you want is that high-velocity water in a garden hose would experience MUCH more resistance (friction loss) than that in any fire hose of larger diameter. The actual numbers will depend upon specific friction-loss factors, including the type and size of hose and the gallons per minute. For example, the friction loss coefficient in a 1.5-inch fire hose (24) is more than ten times what it would be in a 2.5-inch hose (2.0) and 100 times that of a 4-inch hose (0.2).
What is the friction loss in 100feet of 5 inch fire hose?

How many gallons of water is in a 2.5 inch fire hose fifty feet long?
A 2.5 inch fire hose has a capacity of approximately 60 gallons per 100 ft. Therefore, a 50 ft hose would hold around 30 gallons of water.
How many gallons of water in a two and one half inch fire hose?
That's kinda gonna depend on how long the hose is. Without doing any figuresor math at all, we're pretty sure that a one-foot-long piece of 2-1/2" hose willhold more water than a 100-foot-long piece.In fact, when we do some figures, we can tell you that it'll hold one gallon of waterin every 47.1 inch length of hose.
Is there such thing as ice resistance?
yes Ice contain a lot of friction, enough to even set something on fire if a car is rubbing on it at 85,000 miles per hour.
How much water volume does a 1.5 inch hose carry per foot of hose?
1.03 gallons
What measurement is used to express fluid pressure loss?
Fluid pressure loss is typically expressed in units of pressure, such as pounds per square inch (psi) or pascals (Pa). It is a measure of the decrease in pressure as fluid flows through a system due to factors like friction or obstructions.
How much per meter is hydraulic hose?
Hydraulic hose cost per meter depends on the gauge of hose desired, but as an example, 5/16" hydraulic hose can be obtained for approximately 3.48 British Pounds Sterling per meter. 1.3/16" hydraulic hose can be obtained for approximately 11.43 BSP per meter.
How many gallons per hour come out of a hose?
The gallons per hour that come out of a hose depends upon two things: the diameter of the hose, and the water pressure. Since both of these vary, there is no single answer to that question. However, a one inch diameter garden hose at an average household water pressure could be expected to yield about 200 gallons per hour, in my estimation. Your mileage may vary.
How fast do you have to travel to catch fire?
It is not possible to catch fire due to speed alone. However, if an object is traveling at extremely high speeds in Earth's atmosphere, the friction with the air could generate enough heat to cause it to catch fire. The specific speed needed would depend on various factors such as the object's shape and materials.
Do maglev trains have zero friction?
Maglev trains have minimal friction compared to traditional trains due to their use of magnetic levitation. The magnetic forces lift the train off the tracks, reducing physical contact and friction. However, some friction is still present at higher speeds due to air resistance.
