What direction do fluids flow when there is a hole in the container?

Fluids flow down or down and outward, depending on the location of the hole--or path of least resistance. Fluid will stop flowing toward a hole once the fluid level is lower than the hole. So if you marked a line 1/4th inch down from the top of a styrofoam cup, cut a hole at that line (put your finger over it temporarily), and add water to the top and remove your finger, the water will flow sideways and down until the water is below the cut hole. If you poked a hole 1/4th inch up from the bottom, the water would continue to drain to below the second cut hole.

Why is that there is a need to put two holes in a can in order for the content to be poured out?
One hole is the exit hole for the fluid to flow out. The other hole is the entrance hole for air to flow in, to prevent formation of a vacuum. You can pour most fluids with only one hole, but flow will be intermittent as air flows back up the exit hole to break the vacuum that is stopping flow of the fluid.
What is the velocity of the container from which liquid is coming out from hole at its bottom?
This question does not provide enough information on the relevant parameters to even attempt an answer. One would assume that if the hole is at the bottom of the container (and not on the side at the bottom) and the liquid is coming out of the hole only due to gravity that the the container would remain stationary. If there is internal pressure in the container, then the initial pressure becomes important as does the time since the water began to flow. If the hole is on the side of the container, then friction between the container and the surface it is resting on become significant. If the container is not circular in cross section, then the location of the hole along the side helps determine whether the container moves laterally or spins.
Why can't water flow from a container with only one hole?
because it need air to push the water out.in other words water exiting and air entering the same hole is inpossable.
How the current flow through npn?
A; The base must be positive with respect to the emitter this condition will allow collector current to flow from collector to emitter. If the transistor manage to get saturated the current can flow in both direction. as a switch
Why does a liquid flow at longer distance when a hole is made at the centre of the container?
because liquid exerts more pressure more at the bottom tan at the top
When an electron is displaced in a semiconductor the hole thats left behind is?
a. attracted to the negative terminal of the voltage source as an electrons leave its orbit it leave a hole which is promptly filled by another electron. so as electron flow one way the holes flow the opposite direction. in electronics current flow from positive charge to a less positive chargeclassified as a "hole". Although it doesn't really *exist, it is thought to have the same charge as an electron but opposite polarity.
What is a porous container?
Well porous means it has holes in it, for example spongebob. And a porous container is probally like a container that has holes in it or indents that dont make a full hole. Like if it was a cup and you put water in it it would flow out. But if it was indented that looked like a circle that can pass as porous too.
What is rhyto?
Rhyton- (Rhyto)(plural rhyta) are the ancient Greek word (ῥυτόν rutón) for a container from which fluids were intended to be drunk, or else poured in some ceremony such ash libation.The word believed to be derived from Greek are rhein, to flow and would thereby mean to pour. Many vessels considered rhyta featured a wide mouth with the top and a hole through a conical constriction at the bottom from which the fluid ran.
What is the water flow through hole in tank?
slowly water leaking from the hole
How big to Cut hole for cast iron tub drain?
You DON'T cut any hole in CI pipe what you do is install a TEE with the the wye facing at a right angle towrds the direction of flow..Any other option may cause premature failure of the drainage piping
What is the Small hole that allows for blood to flow from the right atrium to the left atrium during embryonic development?
The small hole that allows for blood to flow from the right atrium to the left atrium during embryonic development is called the foramen ovale. It is a temporary opening in the septum between the two atria. After birth, when the lungs begin functioning, the foramen ovale typically closes, allowing blood to flow in the correct direction through the heart.
What is ketcup solid liquid or gas?
As Ketchup will change its shape based on the container its in (otherwise you wouldn't be able to push it out of the hole in the container - it is a liquid
