Why do pen lids have a hole in the top?
To keep the pressure equalized. If you have a pen with no hole, and were to take it up in an airplane, or even to the top of a building, the pressure difference could cause the ink to flow out of the pen creating a mess and making writing really messy. There is a hole in the body of the Compressed polystyrene to equalise atmospheric pressure, for the reasons stated above, however the hole in the top of the lid is to prevent children for sucking the lid into their throat, subsequently this provides an air passage in such a case.
Why does a fountain pen leak at high altitude?
I don't know this as a fact, but this makes sense to me: Fountain pens work on a capillary action system, with only tiny amounts of force applied to the ink to make it go down to the nib. When you go up to a high altitude, suddenly pressure decreases, and the pressure in the pen relative to the outside becomes much higher. Seeking to equalize pressure, the ink starts coming out faster.
The thing at the tip of a pen?
ball pointAnswer:A proper pen has a nib at its tip, not a ball point. A nib is a steel device which i designed to hold a small reserve of ink either filled by dipping into an ink well or by drawing on a bladder in a fountain pen. The nib is split so that increased writing pressure makes a wider mark on the page. A pen nib may be designed for either cursive writing or calligraphy.
Is cello pen a gel pen?
A cello pen is formed as a gel pen some arn't but the cello gelly pen is.
Does changing temperatures affect how long a pen will last?
At lower temperature, the ink will get thicker and flow slower, making the pen write longer but thinner. At higher temperature the ink will get thinner and run faster, making the pen write shorter but richer.
Is the pen for the graphics tablet pressure sensitive?
The included pen is pressure sensitive and will change functionality depending on how much pressure is applied.
What is the meaning of a fountain pen overflows when you board an aeroplane?
There was a change in pressure within the cabin. The pen's ink compartment was at higher pressure pressure when you boarded, but the cabin pressure must have decreased enough at altitude to cause the pen to leak.
Name of working principle of ballpoint pen?

Why a fountain pen overflows when you board an airplane?
Because of the pressure difference. The small amount of air trapped in the pen will expand when the pressure in the aircraft reduces. Commercial aircraft pressures are set to about the same as those at 10,000 feet. There will be a higher pressure inside the pen than in the fuselage, the pressures will try to equalise out and may force some of the ink out of the pen in the process. --NOTE-- The pen should not overflow when you - board - the airplane. It should only happen some time after take off. The pressure when you board the plane is no different from the pressure in the departure lounge.
Why does a drawing pin have a high pressure?
Do you mean a drawing "pen?"
Why are fountain pen not allowed in airplane?
As you know with increasing attitude Atmospheric pressure decreases , so the pressure inside the pen is more compared to the its surrounding Are (i.e inside the Flight).When we are using the pen , the ink gets spilled due to varying pressure.Hence the caution.
How does air pressure help to fill a fountain pen with ink?
Air pressure is what makes the ink change colors as it flows from the pen onto the paper. Without air pressure, the ink would remain colorless and, therefore, invisible on the paper.
Why fountain pen overflow in space?
The pressure in the bulb of the fountain pen is 1 atmosphere as it is loaded with ink on the surface of earth. As we travel away from earth the pressure drops, so in the space where pressure is subatmospheric, the ink flows out,from inside out as favoured by the pressure gradient. Padmanbahan Raghu, INDIA
Why does the laed of a pen pencil break?
It breaks from the amount of pressure you put on it.
Why does the ink from a fountain pen spill out when you carry it in an aeroplane?
Air pressure
Why ink spil out from pen in the aero plane?
Because as altitude increases, air pressure decreases. As the plane rises, the air pressure inside the pen is higher than outside it causing the ink to spill out.
Small pen-like device that uses pressure instead of ink?
A small pen-like device that uses pressure instead of ink is called a stylus. A stylus is used to operate touchscreen devices such as a Nintendo DS or an iPad.
