A house with its own well has a pump in the basement with an
output pipe of inner radius 8.74 mm. The pump can maintain a gauge
pressure of 4.10 × 10^5 Pa in the output pipe. A showerhead on the
second floor (6.70 m above the pump’s output pipe) has 36 holes,
each of radius 0.861 mm. The shower is on “full blast” and no other
faucet in the house is open. Density of water is 1.00 × 10^3 kg/m3.
Ignoring viscosity, with what speed does water leave the
showerhead?
