A water hose is a cylinder, and since the volume of a cylinder is pi*r^2*height, we can calculate the volume of the water hose by finding the radius and height. A 3 inch hose has a radius of 1.5 inches, and 50 ft is equal to 600 inches, so 1.5^2 is 2.25, and 2.25*600 is 1,350. Finally we multiply by Pi to get approximately 4,239 cubic inches. Since 1 cubic inch is equal to 0.00432 gallons, there are 18.3506 gallons.

That section of hose holds 25.5 gallons of water when it's full, which weighs about 213 pounds. To that, add the weight of the empty hose, which I don't know.
Weight of 50ft section of 3 inch hose with water in it?
There need not be any water at all in the hose! The capacity of the hose is 3.41 cubic feet.
109 lbs with no water
If it's full of water, then the water in it weighs about 106.5 pounds. I have no way of knowing what the empty hose weighs by itself. Whatever it is, you'll need to add that to 106.5 pounds.
A 100-foot hose with an inside diameter of five inches can hold 102 US gallons of water.
Roughly 1 gallon for every 18 inches of hose.

If "6 inch" is the inside diameter of the hose, thenVolume = (pi) (radius)2 (length) = (pi) (3)2 (1,200) = 33,929.2 cubic inches = 146.88 gallons (rounded)
1.03 gallons

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
A standard fire hose is 50 feet long. A hose this length with a 2-inch radius grants about 4.36 cubic feet. This volume holds 32 gallons of water.
Approx 544 Imperial gallons.
Depends on the water pressure, and the diameter and length of the hose. Sorry, but there really is no one answer.
It is an accepted fire service understanding that 5" Large Diameter Hose (LDH) will hold 1 gallon/ft. On average a 100' section of 5" empty weighs 110 lbs. With water weighing 8.33 lbs/gal. a 100' section of LDH filled with water will weigh approximately 944 lbs.
