Answer:

  • According to the circumstances mentioned in the question that,

  • a powerful stream of water on a fire from a hose pipe tend to go backward.

  • This phenomenon is the practical life example of the Newton's third law,"every action has a same and opposite amount of reaction."

  • The water stream applies a force on the opposite side of the fireman, that's why a repellent opposite force is also applied on the fireman, himself.

  • That's why he tend to move backwards automatically.

  •  According to Newton's 3rd law of motion, every action has equal and opposite reaction.
  • Thus stream of water going in forward direction exerts a force on the fire man in the backward direction which makes him to go backwards
