explain to me why this wouldn't work
>>17010582
>>17010582Second law of thermodynamics.
>>17010582The water wouldn't flow. If this would work, then every time you sipped from a straw you'd end up with a self-powered fountain/geyser. The tube being inside or outside the main basin makes no difference from a physics perspective.
>>17010582Water would spill out of the left.
>>17010595the tank will create pressure at the bottom if the tube is placed at the bottom of the tank the pressure will pump the water up?
>>17010582It would definitely work. Scientists are just too dumb to make it work.
>>17010600make it work, then. post results.
>>17010582Why do we have bots, or retards, or whomever always posting these weak b8 threads? I used to reply to them but I quickly realized these are all just fake and gay. OP or the bot who is pretending to be OP knows why it doesn't work, this is not w a real question. >Hurrr Durrr why doesn't water flow uphill against gravity?>t. faggot OP
>>17010617I am a real person and was genuinely curious, thought of looking it up but didn't know what to type in the search bar I do commercial pipe fitting and thought of this on my way back from site>Hurrr Durrr why doesn't water flow uphill against gravity?if the tank is wide and deep enough, the pressure at the bottom of it should be able to pump a thin stream of water up above the tank itself
>>17010617>OP knows why it doesn't workyou assume too much.
A very quick primer on why perpetual motion machines are impossible.A system would have to have zero resistance to be able to move, but zero resistance means zero energy.
>>17010672>A system would have to have zero resistance to be able to movewhat if its done in a vacuum?just make some spinning thing in space and you got infinite energy
>>17010598it won't go higher than the tank
>>17010698why not?of course it would, the pressure at the bottom of a 1000 liter tank is so high it would have to push water through a straw sized pipe even tripe its own height
>>17010582cause it'd spill out the side stoopeed
>>17010741That's not how that works.
>>17010582>>17010598>>17010698>>17010741Because, when I stick a straw in my drink, all the way to the bottom of the cup, the drink shoots out the top of the straw, emptying the cup!Also, when I have magnets in my pocket and sit in my car, the magnets pull the car forward all by itself, because I am sitting further towards the front of the car than the back.
>>17010582the water level equalises. If you connect any system of pipes/tanks/etc and let them equalise the water will settle so the top is exactly the same height for all of them.

>>17010582Why is the wheel sitting in the water?
>>17010582Water speed
>>17011197I would say that this is more of an indicator of the level of stupidity that is going on where you are, not that the stupidity here is influencing out in the other direction into your world
>>17010741I think the core flaw in your logic is that you're only thinking about the water on the pipe, and not thinking about all the other water. The pressure of the water at the bottom of the tank isn't ONLY pushing up the water that's in the pipe, it's going to be pushing up all of the water above in all parts of the water system. The water at the top of the big wide open area is going to be "lifted" exactly equally as much as the water at the top of the pipe. As a result, all the water is going to end up being equal height.
>>17010582When given problems like these, it's always nice to start off in a steady state, analyze what is going on in the steady state, and then determine what happens when you change the state to the example state.For your problem, how would you create a steady state? Well you want the water not moving, so the obvious answer is to just block both holes with something rigid like a plate. Actually, you don't even need the large bottom plate because it's still a steady state. Now, what's going on with the water in this state? The air is 1 atm, the wide surface of the water touching the air is also 1 atm, and understanding of bernoulli tells us what the pressures are the different heights are, and you'd know that at the small upper plate, the water is at a lower pressure < 1 atm. Now alter the steady state to what you want by removing the plate. The air is 1 atm, and the upper water is < 1 atm, so what direction is stuff moving?If the tube is wide enough, the air will rush in the center of the tube, but as the pressure equalizes the water will drop below through the sides of the tube around the air coming in. On the right side, as the air rushes in and the pressure equalizes the water just drops down. On the left and right sides, the water level becomes the same in the new steady state.If the tube is too narrow, the "stickiness" of water to the walls of the tube might hold the water in the tube from going all the way clockwise, so the water level might not be perfectly level. If the tube is in between, you could get all the water going clockwise and leveling out
