Weight of 50ft section of 3 inch hose with water in it?
109 lbs with no water
All else being equal, a 2-inch hose carries 4 times the volume as a 1-inch hose.
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.
9 and 10 respectively. Both have remainders but you may not be able to use it to make a new one
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).

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.
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.
109 lbs with no water
100 pounds with couplings, 68 without.

NFPA 1901, Standard for Automotive Fire Apparatus - Requires pumpers to carry: * 15 feet of large soft sleeve hose or 20 feet of hard suction hose * 1200 feet of 2 ½ inch or larger supply hose * 400 feet of 1 ½ , 1 ¾, or 2 inch attack 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)
