Hello,
I have a somewhat dumb question. It is based on the fact that I can create a small vacuum in my mouth to move that "string" of spagetti into my mouth.
I know it is possible, but I do not understand how spaghetti is possible to suck in if the shape is even and round like a "piston".
I have learned that pressure is acting angular to any surface. With the spaghetti, that surface will cause the pressure to act 90° to it, and (in my thoughts) not be able to create a force that pulls or push the spaghetti into my mouth. But still it does. Why?
