I'm having trouble understanding what a deformable system is? Please give me a detailed example with your explanation.
Thanks!
Thanks!

A deformable system refers to any object or material that can change shape or size when subjected to external forces, such as pressure or stress. An example of a deformable system is a tennis ball, which compresses upon impact and returns to its original shape when the force is removed. Other examples include rocks that can fracture under stress, or materials like rubber that stretch and deform under tension. Understanding deformable systems is crucial in fields like physics and engineering, where the behavior of materials under various conditions is analyzed. This concept highlights the importance of material properties in real-world applications.
As you can see from the picture, i have an uneven U-shaped tube, sealed at the short end. I fill the tube with water and i seal it. So the short side is filled with water and the long side ends up containg water and trapped air.
Now the tube is sealed on both sides and i turn it in such a way that the traped air moves at the short side.
Are my claims about pressure in senarios A & B correct?
What is the pressure for all points in senario C?
