Question:

A fire hose ejects a stream of water?

A fire hose ejects a stream of water at an angle of 33.2° above the horizontal. The water leaves the nozzle with a speed of 20.0 m/s. Assuming that the water behaves like a projectile, how far from a building should the fire hose be located to hit the highest possible fire?

Answer:

Sometimes hard-wired ones are required, and will cost that much or more, especially if you have them installed.
Yes, he can. You never grab things and start waving them around. You are lucky all you got was yanked out of the car. Your attitude and actions show you are a trouble maker. An experienced officer can tell from the way a vehicle is operated that the driver may be under the influence. He probably approached the car thinking it was a routine stop. You go waving a metallic object around and he may assume it is a weapon. How do you think he would react finding out he had just killed you over a damn silly cell phone. You did so much wrong, you might as well have had a list of what not to do when stopped. and went down the list, doing each one When an officer asks you for license, registration and proof of insurance, it is against the law not to comply, regardless of where the papers are. You remind me of my former brother in law. always crying about the cops picking on him, when he would roar through residential areas at 80, throw beer bottles out, etc. then mouth off ot the officer who stopped him. Not a good idea. Please, for your sake, clean up your act. for removing that snarky remark.
Ordinarily, no. Lightning strikes the highest object in the immediate area. However, if your cabin has a metal roof (mine does) the metal will attract the lightning. That is why it is always good to invest in lightning rods (I did).
