Water flows steadily through a fire hose and nozzle. The hose is 60 mm inside diameter, and the nozzle tip is 28 mm I.D.; water gage pressure in the hose is 426 kPa, and the stream leaving the nozzle is uniform. The exit speed and pressure are 38 m/s and atmospheric, respectively. Find the force transmitted by the coupling between the nozzle and hose. Indicate whether the coupling is in tension or compression.
