A tumbler glass is shaped so that the base of the glass is also the bottom of its inside. A footed glass, on the other hand, is connected to a base by way of a stem. The length and width of the stem do not matter.

∙ 10y agoI will assume you do not know what a footed glass looks like. Think of it like this. You know what a wine glass looks like. It has a bowl, a stem and the base or foot. Take that glass and remove the stem and you have a footed glass.
A tumbler has a flat bottom (no foot) and generally has straight sides. Tumblers are considered styles for drinking glasses (mixed drinks on the rocks for example).
It used to be that a tumbler was a taller glass that held more liquid - like an iced tea glass. An "old fashioned" was a small flat bottomed glass for mixed drinks, a "double old fashioned" or DOF, a larger version - the kind used in most bars today.
Now companies call all three of the above glasses tumblers and some footed glasses tumblers as well. If you are trying to purchase the correct type of glass for specific use, feet or no feet, just think of the way you want it used!

Why does a glass tumbler break when boiling water directly poured into it?
When heat is applied to something, it tends to expand. When you pour hot water into something made out of glass, only the inside dilates, and the outside doesn't, since its temperature is cooler. If the insides enlarges but the outside doesn't, it cracks. For this reason thick glass is more likely to crack, and thinner glass is less likely. Also, the bottom of the glass could expand, while the top doesn't (if the hot water goes straight to the bottom). In any case, the temperature is higher in one part of the glass and lower in another, so one part expands and another stays the same size.
How many combined words are there?
This number is a permutation of the number of tumblers and the number of codes on each tumbler. So a three tumbler lock with five codes on each tumbler would have 5 x 5 x 5 = 125 combinations. A four tumbler lock with four codes on each tumbler would have 4 x 4 x 4 x 4 = 256 combinations.
