🔍 Key Concepts

• Proper hose installation and how bends or twists affect internal flow • How a radial twist looks compared to a simple bend or loop • Where a restriction is most likely to form inside a flexible hose under stress

💭 Think About

• Look closely at hose D: is the problem caused by the size of the fittings, the curvature of the loop, or something happening along the hose itself? • Compare D with hose C: which one shows a tight bend, and which one shows a distorted or twisted shape in the hose body? • Ask yourself: which condition would most likely collapse or pinch the hose cross‑section, creating a restriction to fluid flow?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify any kinked or flattened areas in figure D that would reduce the internal diameter of the hose • Check whether the fittings appear uniform in size at both ends of the hose • Determine if there is an obvious twist along the hose length rather than just a smooth curve
