Is it true that liquids rise in a straw because of suction?
yes <><><><><> Actually, the pressure outside the straw presses the fluid up into the straw.
What effect do you think increasing the flow tube length will have on the fluid flow rate?
I have no opinion until I see the complete experimental set-up.
What is it called when a fluid heats up and starts to move or flow in a circular motion?
This is known as convection.
Why a liquid travels up a straw when you suck on it?
1) Air inside the straw moves 2)Pressure inside decreases 3)Pressure of the atmosphere is greater then the Pressure inside the straw=Liquid moves up the straw!!!
How does Bernoullis Principle explain the force of lift?
Bernoulli's principle states that as the speed of a moving fluid increases, the pressure exerted by the fluid decreases.
Is it true that liquids rise in a straw because of suction?
yes <><><><><> Actually, the pressure outside the straw presses the fluid up into the straw.
What viscosity level was the fluid flow rate the highest?
The relationship between radius and fluid flow rate is inversely proportional. As radius goes down, fluid flow rate goes up. The highest fluid flow rate will be at the lowest radius.
What is one example of constructed fluid systems?
A juice box straw is. When you suck in you create an area of low pressure in the straw. The fluid inside the juice box rushes into the straw and up into your mouth. This is one of the most basic one though
Why does sucking on a straw make the liquid come up?
When you suck on a straw the pressure at the top of the straw becomes lower than the pressure at the bottom, which forces liquid up.
Explain why drinking through a straw shows that fluids flow from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure-?
This is significant as the drink moves up the straw and into your mouth.
What systems are involved in the flow of lymph fluid?
well the flow of lymph fluid is when your ateries are blocked up with flem, green GUNGY flem and it soaks up your insides and overpowers your feaces.
Is smoke a fluid?
smoke is a fluid. all gases are fluids because they flow and take up space
What is Five letter word for scarecrows make up?
straw
Difference between turbulent flow and streamlined flow?
Streamline flow:The flow of a fluid is said to be streamline (also known as steady flow or laminar flow), if every particle of the fluid follows exactly the path of its preceding particle and has the same velocity as that of its preceding particle when crossing a fixed point of reference.Turbulent flow:The flow of a fluid is said to be turbulent or disorderly, if its velocity is greater than its critical velocity. Critical velocity of a fluid is that velocity up to which the fluid flow is streamlined and above which its flow becomes turbulent. When the velocity of a fluid exceeds the critical velocity, the paths and velocities of the fluid particles begin to change continuously and haphazardly. The flow loses all its orderliness and is called turbulent flow.
How does drinking through a straw show that fluids flow from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure?
Sucking on the straw reduces the air pressure inside it. This allows 'natural' air pressure to push down on the liquid in the container, causing it to rise up the straw..
What make milkshake go up your straw?
When you suck on the straw, the pressure inside your mouth is less than the outside air pressure. Because of the imbalance, the outside pressure pushes the milkshake down the glass, up the straw and into your mouth.
What does electricity flow threw?
Electricity consists components that include an "electron". "Electrons" make the electrical device work. In order for an electron to "move" it must have a conductor. Copper, Aluminum and other metals are conductors. Imagine electrons like little bb's (from a bb gun), line up these bbs in a straw, the straw is the conductor, when you blow into the straw the bbs are pushed out the other end. Blowing into the straw is kind of like voltage. Voltage is differential. What really is happening is the electrons are moving though the conductor and into the electrical device and the conductors and semiconductors in it and are manipulated to make the device work and are then joined to the other working component of electricity which is called a "proton". Like a magnet where opposites attract, electrons are attracted to protons and flow to them.
