Coriolis effect\n\n\nThe Coriolis effect is an apparent deflection of a moving object in a rotating frame of reference. There are examples of this effect in everyday life, such as the direction of rotation of cyclones. Due to the effect, cyclones rotate counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere, and clockwise in the southern hemisphere. However, contrary to popular opinion, it has no noticeable effect on the rotation of water in draining sinks and toilets (see the toilets/bathtubs section below). The effect is named after Gaspard-Gustave Coriolis, a French scientist, who described it in 1835, though the mathematics appeared in the tidal equations of Laplace in 1778.

Answer to the first part of thequestion;  \n\nConsider a water tank full of water.We connect a pump which pumps the water from the tank and delivers it again to the tank. \n The tank will never be empty and the water will be flowing continuously along the pipe connected to the pump and tank.\nIf the pipe connecting the pump and tank has an obstacle say a solid block of wood  which is somehow inserted into the pipe, then there will not be flow of water. But still the pipe and tank will have water but with out  any flow. \n Similarly in an electrical circuit electrons are like water in the tank ;the wire is like the pipe; the battery or cell or generator of electicity is like the pump in our example.\n Electrons flow from one end(tank) of the battery(pump) to the other end (tank) through the wire like water through the pipe.\n If one end of a wire is connected to the battery and the other end is left free,we have to imagine that the free end is further connected to the battery by an imaginary wire made of air.( The only matter that connects the free end to the battey is air) Just like water cannot flow through the wooden obstacle electrons cannot flow through air. Though the wire is full of electrons there will not be any flow of  electrons. \n\nAnswer to the second question,'Y dont they fall when they reach the end.\n\nThe wire is full of electrons even if there is no flow. We shall lift one end of the wire and let  the other end loose. It is natural to expect all the electrons in the wire to fall down due to gravity. But the electostatic force beeing very much stronger than the gravitational force keeps them within the wire. To remove them out we must apply a force atleast equal to the electostatic force. The function of the battery, in fact ,is  to provide such a force.

There's a sensor hole at the end of the nozzle that shuts it off at the first hint of backwash

UNPLUG IT TAKE IT OUTSIDE AND LET IT DRAIN AND DEFROST BRING IT BACK IN PLUG IT BACK IN YOU NEED TO DO THIS EVERY NOW AND THEN

Actually, the sprinkler rotates in the same direction as before.\n\nThe motion of the water as it gets into the sprinkler exerts a force on the inner walls of the tubing that has a similar direction as in the first case. Considering the previous posted answer, the thing to consider here is the friction. In a frictionless system, it may not move at all, but since our world is not frictionless, the contact of water with the walls implies some momentum exchange.\n\nIt's hard to explain without images, but try the following. Having the sprinkler out of the water, try blowing some air inside one of the openings with your mouth or a syringe. Obviously the whole tubing will start spinning away from the direction of the blowing air. Well, the same happens with the sucked water, but instead of it being "pushed" inside, it's "pulled" inside. The process may be different in cause, but the effect is the same.

i would check out the boots on the plug wires and the ign. box for leaks.you could have it running and squirt the meantioned items and see when it quits.

Maybe your imaginary $300 is blocking the drain... Imma need you to get butt naked and stand over the drain.... and proceed to urinate in the sink.... \n\nNow stay with me now...the natural ammonia in your urine will counter act with whatever is blocking the drain (basic 10th chem)... the key to this method is too jiggle your member above the sink...the vibrations from your movement will help speed up the process... \n\nI would say if you follow these directions your "money" will be safe and unharmed, and your imaginary drainage problem will be solved.\n\nHow about I was on the bus the other day a found a brown wallet with $300. damn that's spooky....

The water draining from an air conditioner is generally just plain old water.  The water comes from moisture in the air that condenses when it hits the cold coils in the air conditioner.  The moisture condenses on the coils and collects in the drain pan.  The water itself should not be dangerous.  However, if the water has been leaking for an extended period of time, you may want to check the area for mold (or have it professionally tested).  Some people are very sensitive to mold spores and can suffer allergic reactions.\n\nIf this was a recent, one-time leak, you should not have any issues with mold.  Just make sure that any wet sheetrock or carpet is thoroughly dried.  You can use a dehumidifier and/or box fans for this.  Also, cleaning the wall or hard floors with a dilute solution of bleach will help prevent any mold formation.  \n\nMake sure you have that area well ventilated (open windows) while cleaning with bleach.  I would not use bleach on the carpet for obvious reasons, but a steam cleaner may be a good idea.  Just make sure to dry everything thoroughly when cleaning is complete.\n\nThe drain line was probably clogged by a buildup of slime that is common in A/C drain lines.  Th line can be cleared by flushing the line with a hose to blow out any clogs.  Then pour some bleach through the line to clear up any slime buildup.  Make sure the line is still connected to the drain (not broken) when you flush or treat with bleach.  Otherwise, you may end up with more water on the floor.

If you have a voltage regulator that is poorly designed (or adjusted?) it will overshoot the target voltage then correct and overshoot in the other direction, etc. etc.  Usually there must be some type of feedback in the circuit that accepts small deviations rather than "hunt" for a too precise voltage value.  Hope that helps a little.

Contrary to legend, it depends on the sink - not the hemisphere. The Coriolis force (which makes large scale currents and weather patterns turn clockwise in the Northern hemisphere and counter-clockwise in the Southern hemisphere) is really too small to matter in a sink/toilet. The geometry of the sink and the motion of the water before you pull the plug plays a much larger role.

Think of a small "U" shaped tube. Do you agree that if you pour water through either opening, the water level on either sides will be the same?\nThe "commode" is one of the sides of that "U" shape tube, the other side is inside the toilet. At a certain height (aproximately at 30% the height of the commode) this other side twists down and connects to the drain pipe of the toilet.\nSo the "U" actually would look like an inverted capital "N"\n\nWhen you flush the toilet, water goes into the commode. Since there is more water in the commode than in the inside of the toilet, water will move into the toilet, and down the drain pipe. It will continue to do so, until the water is at 30% of the height of the commode on either side of the "U".\n\nPercentages are just approximations. Hope this helps.

If the coolant level is dropping, it is going somewhere.  If you can't find any leaks or see coolant on the ground then it's probably the head gasket.

Not if the Drano did not - BTW try to avoid Drano. It causes a lot of problems for anyone who has to take the drain apart. Try filling the sink part full of warm water and running the garbage disposal. If the disposal will not run, check the reset button and try the manual turner on the disposal. If all that fails, you need a plumber or someone who knows what they are doing. Do not fail to tell them about the Drano.

You are describing "water hammer."\nIt happens when a valve is closed in an old building or one that has not been plumbed according to code.\nEven in a relatively short run of 5 meters, a 2 cm pipe will contain 1,000 cc of water.  That much water weighs a kilogram.\n(15 feet, 3/4 inch, 2.2 pounds)\nThe water in the pipe is moving fairly quickly and with that much mass it bashes the building with a lot of force.\n\nKnowledgeable plumbers are aware of the problem and install short lengths of pipe that stay filled with air.  You may have noticed one around a construction site.  Near a sink or other place that has a valve, there will be a short length of pipe that comes up to a closed cap.  It looks like the plumber wanted to run the line somewhere else and decided against it.  The air in that pipe will compress and absorb the shock to eliminate water hammer.\n\nZeedo is right.  Ideaquest and Peter are not.  Trapped air solves the problem.

radon360 is correct, dont listen to the others.\n\nThe way water drains just depends on which way you pour it down.\n\nIf toilets flush the other way in australia it is entirely due to australian toilet manufacturers or some sort of australian plumber conspiracy.

Many of the 3D drains with the integrated plugs are also cast out of steel or aluminum, which allows a greater strength part because of the different thicknesses.  Also, in the past some of these were forged but that process tends to be expensive and is therefore not often used any more
