- A large tank has a tube coming out of it like a straw, as shown in the picture below. The tube of water is entirely full and closed at the end on the right, while the tank is open to the air. Rank the pressures at points N, U, C, L, E, A, and R (using <, >, and =). Explain your reasoning. How does the pressure at point R compare with the atmospheric pressure immediately outside of the straw? Explain your reasoning. Describe what would happen if you held the right end of the straw (near point R) in place and poked a hole in the end of it. (This is how a siphon works.) Explain your reasoning.
