The pressure in the straw goes to negative.

[We cannot have a negative pressure - this grammar form is known as an oxymoron.]

A2. The pressure in the straw is reduced, and thus the liquid is able to be drawn higher in the straw.

What pushes lemonade up a straw?

When we suck the straw, we create a pressure within the straw to go against gravity. So the straw pulls up the lemonade because of the force we create through sucking.


What role does atmospheric pressure play when someone is drinking a liquid through a straw?

when you drink through a straw you remove some of the air in the straw. because there is less air the pressure of the straw is reduced. but the atmospheric pressure on the surface of the liquid remains the same. henceforth how it helps you drink


When you suck from a straw you make your mouth bigger so what happens to the air pressure in your mouth?

It increases.....


When you drink with the help of a straw what forces the liquid up the straw?

Air pressure. If you suck, the air pressure of the surrounding air is greater than the pressure inside the straw.


Why is it possible to suck up liquid with drinking straw?

Basically, you reduce the pressure in the straw. The pressure inside the straw is less than the atmospheric pressure which presses down on the liquid outside.


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.


To suck lemonade of density 1000 kgm3 up a straw to a maximum height of 3.2 cm what minimum gauge pressure in atmospheres must you produce in your lungs?

P= density x gravity x height and the answer is negative because air is reduced in the straw


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!!!


What happens when you suck at a straw while having a drink?

You lower the pressure inside your mouth and the atmosphere pushes the liquid up the straw. That is why it is almost impossible to suck the liquid into your stomach directly. You can't lower your stomach pressure much. The mouth has muscles to create a small lower pressure area, then you gulp the contents that wind up in the mouth.


When we suck on a straw the liquid travels up. why?

Because of the suction the pressure in your mouth is lower than the atmospheric pressure on the surface of the liquid. This extra pressure pushes the liquid 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.


How does straw function while drink?

When you 'suck' on a straw, you reduce the air pressure inside it. This means the air pressure on the surface of the liquid outside the straw is greater - so it pushes down, which forces liquid up the straw into your mouth.
