Great video man

Hi 🙋‍♀️ this is a really nice 👍🏻

I’m soooo happy I live in Wisconsin we have so much clear clean water, I don’t even have a water bill my apt covers all my water.

So does this gravity keeps the ocean sucked to a spinning ball??

[@ruqaiya7865]

Thanks for this video and amazing explain

[@adithyahegde2543]

Can u explain Types of Ground water flow?

[@levelliberation6155]

Can anyone tell me based off of the first depiction. He has the two cups, and explains how the molecule is pushed down, and always finds an equal level state while being connected to one another via underground plumbing. I'd like to know at what distance does this phenomenon of both cups having the same level no longer apply?

[@matthewdalessio]

The video talks about how there is frictional loss over all distances. The longer the distance, the more loss such that the cups wouldn't come to quite the same level. But in nature, this can work over hundreds and even more than a thousand miles. Here is a map of connected aquifers in the USA so you can get a sense of the size: water.usgs.gov/ogw/aquifer/USAaquiferMAP11_17.pdf. The height water will rise to in a well will never be quite as high as the height where water enters the aquifers because of the frictional loss, but it does rise upwards.

@@matthewdalessio thank you for the info. That is interesting for sure. I hope you do not mind, but admittedly my question was a bit loaded. I do not have any formal education and strict regards to the nature of water or any particular facets that do business in that topic. However I think I have a pretty good grasp on physics, but I'm always ready to learn something new and if you happen to have the knowledge for that then I would greatly appreciate it. I was pretty confident that the answer to the question was essentially an infinite amount of distance. I didn't consider the friction loss but that is totally understandable, and I appreciate the information about that because it's not something I had really considered to be honest with you. Now I would like to see if you could give some thought to the idea of how this is possible for water to find an equilibrium over these great distances regardless of the fact that it's on a topographically affected terrain, be it above ground or below ground. And all one connecting body of water, all resting at different elevations which means it has different pressure due to the density of the subject matter that it's in or that surrounds it. Different "gravity" effects due to multiple other aspects yet no matter how far you go around a ball the water will consistently be at equilibrium. Where we see no effects of centripetal or centrifugal force from the spinning of the ball. Obviously I have a point that I'm trying to get at and I hope that I can get some actual information on it, genuinely. But for me I look at the way that that acts and the physics of it in such a way that when we say sea level that's precisely what I think it is across the board I just don't see how it can be any other way.

one of the biggest dangers for our groundwater is nowadays the intensive use of geothermal heating, temperature alterations influence the water quality!

[@iovi3384]

Geothermal heating meaning increase crust temperature or geothermal energy consumption?

[@dougmac8904]

Nice expenlation

[@delmarmountainstar6444]

Sorry u r and ideat the water pressure in the second house is reduced because the first house is using water

[@iron4ger]

water is gravity made visible.

[@gabebethune]

Perfect video to help prove we don't live on a spinning ball! Water ALWAYS finds its level stationary position.....

[@nicejk9545]

Thanks for explaining.

[@ihwan11]

Thank you

EARTH AND ALL OF ITS WATER IS FLAT.

stop croaking ur voice. You're going to damage your vocal chords.

[@MarlonVanderLinde]

Stop doing natural things, like sneezing. Also, how much fun are you at parties?
