Really they might have the same capacity, but everyone has different opinions on which looks like it has more. I would say the water in the tall skinny glass would look like more, but just like i said everyone has different opinions so its okay to disagree with my suggestion.

Does Water evaporate faster in a wide glass or narrow glass?

A tall, skinny glass will freeze water faster than a short, wide glass.This is because the tall glass allows convection (cold particles in the air to transfer cold to the water particles in the glass) to take place between more particles at once due to a tall glass having a larger surface area.


What happens when a person looks at a glass of water with a pencil in it?

As light hits the water it is slowed down. As the light above the water is going at 3x108 m/s, and the light in the water is going considerably slower, the image of the pencil looks like it is split in two. This is called 'refraction'.


Why does a pencil looks broken when seen from the side of drinking glass with water?

When light passes from air into water, it changes speed and direction, causing the pencil to appear distorted at the air-water interface. This bending of light is known as refraction. This effect causes the pencil to seem broken or disjointed when viewed from the side of the drinking glass filled with water.


When a glass is placed facing down in a basin of water why don't the water go inside the glass?

The air pressure acting on the water surface prevents it from entering the glass. The pressure of the water pushing against the glass is not enough to overcome the air pressure inside the glass, which keeps the water out.


Can water go through glass?

Yes, water can pass through glass due to its permeable nature. Glass is a non-porous material, meaning that water cannot penetrate it or be absorbed by it.
