When you block one end of a straw why does the liquid stay in place/in the straw?
In: Physics
I think the easiest way to think about this is with this question: “What would be in the straw if the liquid ran out and how would it get in?”
It would need to trade places with the liquid and there isn’t enough space for it to do so at the same time, thus no movement of any kind.
