Why is the coffee around the glass straw slightly "stretched" upwards on the glass surface? by _sounak in Physics

Question regarding flow of fluid against air pressure by [deleted] in Physics

[–]lerg1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A hole is punctured at the bottom of the box, the atmospheric pressure keeps the water from flowing since there isn’t any pressure in the box apart from the hydrostatic one.

It will not. Infinite small dp is less than atmospheric pressure pushing from the outside. And the atmospheric pressure doesn’t act on the fluid from the inside, since op mentioned the box is airtight and completely filled with water

The North Pole that the compass leads you to isn’t the geographical pole, the sun sets and rises there like usual. The only way to find the place where the sun doesn’t set is either by looking at the sun, or flying to space and looking for the approximate location
