well, the meniscus are formed due to the adhesion forces and the surfacw tension of the liquid, which it was mentioned in the later part but when the meniscus was mentioned first time( in case of the capillary tube), it is not due to the pressure difference but due to same reasons stated above that's why water will always form a conclave meniscus with glass containers irrespective of any pressure difference

@@mpred8606 Nope. Around 30' is the limit of water head at sea level. Doesn't matter if there's more than 30' water in the tube or you have a mouth full of water before you raise it vertical, air pressure can only support a column of water around 30' high and so it would fall leaving a partial vacuum above it. Capilliary action is a force generated between the liquid and the tube wall, surface tension limits the height the liquid can rise and the greater the diameter of the tube the less the surface tension can support a column of liquid under it. No negative atmospheric pressure there.

Have you tried filling it until the capillary tube overflows but attaching another tube that feeds the overflow back into the large fill chamber. Would that cause a constant motion of it flowing into the fill chamber as it is pulled through the overflow tube via gravity and vaccum and capillary action forces all working in unison?

*@The Action Lab* 3:50 -ish. So if I would make like a 10 meter long garden hose, filled with some optimal material (like graphene tubes or something?) then I could lift water 10 meter straight up without investing any energy? Can't be right, that would violate the laws of physics? (conservation of energy or something). It would mean that I could take a mine shaft, lift the water 10 meters, pour it into a pool & repeat the lifting forever. I could theoretically lift it into space? FOR FREE??? Can't be right? That would create perpetual motion engines! Can't be right? But also, trees use this I think, in their stem to lift water? *WHERE DOES THE ENERGY COME FROM?!!*

The answer depends on your fundamental understanding of the term negative pressure, if it is understood as relative negative pressure then its essentially particles colliding just less frequently and with less kinetic energy compared to its surroundings. However if understood as negative pressure then unfortunately no such thing had been proven to exist.

Water displays apparent "antigravity" properties all the time. Just think blotting paper or a drop of water hanging from a tap. Nothing to do with air pressures at all but just reminding us that molecular attractive forces can be much stronger than gravity. Air pressure is only relevant if we try to draw water up a pipe that is not open ended. As far as very tall trees are concerned I'm sure I read somewhere the extra lift beyond capilliary action and evaporative "suction" is achieved through a series of open and closed valves in the trees structure. I love your vacuum experiments and watch them regularly. Can you try this in your vacuum chamber - I'm keen to see the results.

This is the same principle used to create the "lighter-than-air" material known as Aerogel. Basically, it starts as just a block of amalgam, until the liquid is evaporated from the voids. Once the evaporation has taken place, the voids are so small, the air pressure within the matrix left behind is of a lower pressure (amd subsequently less mass) than the surrounding air... so the matrix itself actually 'weighs' less than than sum of its true mass.

@@coolguy284_2 Except that you're missing the importance of the word 'absolute' in terms of pressure. Pressure is an emergent phenomenon from the random motion of molecules, same as temperature. Absolute pressure means you're starting the scale from no pressure at all. (as opposed to gauge pressure, which typically starts the scale based on the local air pressure being 0psig, approximately =14.7psia at sea level) Just as it makes no sense to have a negative absolute temperature, so too it makes no sense to have negative absolute pressure. Or negative volume for that matter. The ideal gas law relates these quantities: PV=nRT. You can have changes in values that are negative but none of them can actually be negative in and of themselves. How do you get colder than atoms not moving? How do you get a lower pressure than atoms not exerting any force? How do you have a volume smaller than zero? How do you have less than zero atoms? In short, you can't. (R is just a constant that makes the units work out so its value is what it is).

Instead of glass, if you used a more hydrophilic material for the tubing (e.g. wood) would it pull the water up more? The reason I ask that is because the interface between water and any other material always creates a type of meniscus of some thickness which varies in size depending on how hydrophobic or hydrophilic the material is. The meniscus doesn't just happen between water and air although by definition the interface between water and air is given the term 'meniscus.' I'd be curious to see this experiment repeated with wooden tubing. :)

Ranging from small to large in the tubes would be 2, 3,4, then 1, being the largest in size and 2 being the smallest, not counting the horizontal chamber connecting the vertical tubes! If the tubes were equal in size, then the pressure would be evenly distributed!

Very informative video, thanks. Do you have time to answer a question for me? I have a small vessel filled with water. A thin tube (1.5mm inner diameter) hangs an arbitrary distance below the surface and the top is attached to a valve that allows me to release ink into the water. When the valve is open, ink flows freely. When I close the valve, a vacuum is created at the top of the tube, so the flow of ink stops. However, through what I assume is capillary action, water from the vessel is pulled into the tube, apparently displacing ink, which then leaks into the vessel. This continues until all of the ink in the tube has leaked out. My question is, is there any way to prevent this leakage from happening? I cannot change the viscosity of either the ink or the water. The tube could be modified if that would help, but not to the extent of using a much larger diameter tube. I hope you find this question interesting and I'd be most appreciative if you can answer it. Thanks very much!

I have a question, if a black hole suck into it everything with mass, and if you placed a small black hole a question, if a black hole suck into it everything with mass, and if you placed a small black hole on earth it would suck in the earth as well as the air since it has mass, if it did what would be left except for the black hole if everything got sucked in?
