Need A Physics Formula

[Lotsokids]

I'd like to see the physics formula that shows the likelyhood of the garden hose sprayer nozzle to spray you when you drop it on the ground. I'm sure it's close to 1:1 ratio, but not sure... :a014:

I believe that it depends on the air temp. If it is below 50 degrees F, it is more likely to spray you than when it is 90F.

i think you have to add the coefficient of friction of the nicely new clean shirt for the party you are going to at the time, it for sure increases the probable outcome of being in the line of sight when gun hits the ground. :rofl_200:

The probability also doubles for each person who is watching you...

Interesting that you would mention this as it just so happens I've done a bit of research on this issue.....

There's is only a 13.2% chance of the gun landing trigger down, but a 99.9% chance that it will occur!! unk:

 

[EvilD]

the answer is 17

It is exponentially higher if your freshly washed and waxed vehicle is sitting right behind you.

The formula works out that the probability is proportional to the assumed value of the item in the direct path of the stream, multiplied by the inverse of the amount of time you have to clean up the spray, AND how much shit you will be in from your spouse for getting something/someone wet.

Aaaahhhh....Murphy's law, I have a PHD in it. Right now I'm running a study on what I call the BBQ sauce and the white T-shirt law.

Guys, guys ,guys......THIS is the lady you want to talk to! She is a garden hose expert.

think i saw her in golf ball pro monthly?? could it be the garden hose queen and her are one and the same :rofl_200:

Don't think so, Rov! I believe the garden hose queen's nip stud was vertical 'stead of horizontal!

Course, I wasn't looking thar closely!! :eusa_liar:

In your research Dan,
Did you figure in the probability of leaving that little trigger latch that keeps the trigger valve open in the on position
when it was dropped ??:rofl_200::rofl_200::ummm:
