Some species are able to swim for short distances by jetting water through the siphons.
But eventually the jet water will lose kinetic energy and disperse over a wider area, causing a two-fold reduction in the force it can deliver.
A squid can only keep it up for a few seconds while it is jetting water out of its body cavity.
Versluis et al. estimated the velocity of the jetting water to be on the order of 25 m/s from the cavitation bubble generated by a snapping shrimp.
After a brief light irradiation using mercury-lump VLT-X10P (Osram, Germany), unpolymerized solutions were immediately removed by jet-water (in case of wet MMV) or by spinning off (in case of dry MMV).
Banded archerfish have mouths adapted to spit jets of water over distance, usually to knock prey into the water.
Fountains leap, as more elephants squirt jets of water.
Jets of water arced high across the street.
Falling amid the jets of water, Mrs. Campbell was battered in the hip.
Fourteen recruits crouched to direct powerful jets of water at the screen.
