When one cup of water is poured into another cup of water such that cup 2 is overflowing, is the water from cup 1 or cup 2 the liquid spilling over?
In: Physics
Try it!
Take a cup of water, color it red.
Take a different cup of water, either leave it uncolored or color it f.i green.
Pour one cup in to the other.
What is the color of the part that spilled over? Is it red, green, or a mix of the two?
However, to answer your question it depends on *how* you pour the water, but for most practical purposes “both” is the correct answer.
