When a thumb is placed over the hole in the top of the straw, it seals the entry way for air. When the straw is pulled out of the water, it is to be noted that a drop or two of water falls out of the bottom but no more falls. This is because when the water droplets fall, this creates more space in the air pocket in the top part of the straw. WIth more space the pressure decrease in the air pocket. In addition, gravity is working on the water inside the straw, but these two forces do not outweigh the force of atmospheric pressure outside, as a result, the water stays within the staw.

Why does putting your thumb over the end of the garden hose make the water go further?
Putting your thumb over the end of the garden hose restricts the flow of the water, causing it to increase in speed as it exits the hose. This results in a stronger stream that can reach further distances.

How do you catch a mouse using a clock paper bag and a straw?
Place the clock inside the paper bag and prop it up with the straw. When the mouse goes to investigate the bag, it will knock over the clock, making a loud noise and startling the mouse into the bag, trapping it inside.

Why is the thumb in another direction?
There are no clear anatomical reasons for the direction of the thumb. It is the result of how our hand evolved over time, providing us with dexterity and the ability to grasp objects with precision. This anatomical feature has allowed humans to develop advanced tool use and manipulation skills.
Why doesn't water in an eyedropper move?
vacuum is what holds the water in place. it`s the same thing as when you put a straw into a glass of water, hold your finger tight over the end of the straw and then lift the straw out of the water, holding the water inside the straw until you remove your finger from the end. in the case of the eye dropper, the water is forced out when the bulb is squeezed. vacuum is the force at work in both instances holding the water.
Does the water drip out of the bottom of the straw?
If you hold your finger over the top of the straw it does not because the gravitational force pulling on the water towards the opening at the bottom is not great enough to overcome the vacume created on the top by your finger over the hole. Space is occupied by matter and therefore displacement of matter must be replaced by matter itself whether it be air or some other substance.
Where does the grand national at Blackpool pleasure beach swap over?
it never does. try this trick, hold your thumb and its closest finger together (with your right hand your thumb will be on your left, now draw a loop, when your finger comes down your thumb will be on the right!
Why does a rabbit throw straw over its head?
It throws straw over its head to make it quiet and to feel sakure.
How do you stick a straw in an apple?
Just stab it with it. if it is not an extremely weak straw or an extremely firm apple, it should go into it. whether you'll be able to drink anything or not, I don't think so. I'd try it with an orange or other citrus fruit. would be easier to get juice out of :) EDIT: If you hold your thumb over one end of the straw, being careful to ensure a seal, when you push the straw against the apples skin, you will have formed a seal at both ends of the straw. As such the air in the straw is trapped. In order for the straw to deform (as it would tend to do by buckling, folding or bending when you try to force it into the apple) it must now compress the air in the straw rather than simply forcing it out of the open hole at the top. This is significantly more difficult, as the compressed air pushes back against the internal walls of the straw. This therefore means that a larger force would be required to compress the air and cause the straw to bend or buckle. In other words the straw is now stiffer / more rigid than it was. As more force can now be applied to the straw before it will deform, it is more likely to pierce the apple.
Why is the Vacuole important in plant cells but not in animal cells?
Because it holds the water an when it can't hold anymore water it dies because you have over watered it. Because it holds the water an when it can't hold anymore water it dies because you have over watered it. Because it holds the water an when it can't hold anymore water it dies because you have over watered it.

Is putting your thumb over a water hose an example of bernoulli's theorem?
Yes, putting your thumb over a water hose is an example of Bernoulli's theorem in action. When you partially block the flow with your thumb, the cross-sectional area decreases, causing the water to speed up and exit the hose with greater velocity. This increase in speed results in a decrease in pressure at the point of constriction, illustrating the principle that within a flowing fluid, an increase in velocity occurs simultaneously with a decrease in pressure.
