How can you make fluid flow up a straw?

One way to make fluid flow up a straw is by creating a vacuum by sucking on one end of the straw. This reduces the air pressure inside the straw, allowing the higher external air pressure to push the fluid up the straw and into your mouth.

Why does the drinking straw does not drip out when you press the top of the straw with your thumb or finger tip?

Your finger prevents air from entering through the top of the straw. As fluid moves down the straw it leaves a void in it's wake, one that is usually immediately filled by air. By preventing the air from entering the top of the straw, the fluid cannot move downwards because to do so would leave a vacuum space between your finger and the fluid; this "sucks" the fluid back in into place and prevents it from decending down the straw.

Is it true that liquids rise in a straw because of suction?

Yes, liquids rise in a straw due to atmospheric pressure. When you reduce the pressure inside the straw by sucking, it creates a partial vacuum which causes the atmospheric pressure on the surface of the liquid to push it up into the straw.

What is the straw colored fluid?

The straw-colored fluid you are referring to is likely cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), which is a clear and colorless fluid found in the brain and spinal cord.

It is typically obtained through a procedure called a lumbar puncture (spinal tap) for diagnostic purposes.


What makes a milkshake go up a straw?

The part of the milkshake that is in the upper portion of the straw is exposed to a warmer environment than the bottom of the straw. Since the bottom remains cold longer it continues to plug the lower end of the straw while the upper portion of milkshake begins to expand in volume as it thaws. Since the bottom is plugged and the capacity of the straw remains constant, the increased volume of fluid spills out of the top of the straw.
