1) The cap is dropped from an initial position completely out of the water so that the cap has an initial velocity. The height from which the cap is dropped stays constant for each cap however, due to splashing and water escaping the beaker, the caps used last had a longer distance to fall and...

I should have mentioned the bottom of the cap is a dome. I know that pressure is a dependent on depth from surface of water. Therefore, the pressure at a point in water inside the cap will be less than the pressure at a point of the same height outside of the cap (as in height from ground)...

Hey everyone, I'm new to physics forums and I would really like some help with my physics report. For my high school physics topic I have chosen an experiment where holes with differing diameters are drilled into the centre of the bottom of PVC pipe caps and the time taken for the each cap to...
