I hate you so much right now. Also I think it's 5
It's only 5. It just overflows.
Depends on the flow from the faucet.
If it is filling 1 faster then water can move between then order will be 1->2->5
If it is slow enough then just 5 fills.
Everything else will be dry. Between 2 to 3 is sealed too. Without lids there is a lot of issues.
I think there's a potential for 4 to get wet, even though it can't fill.
If the faucet pressure and flow is so big that it spills out without filling the bucket, the spill could reach 4. Given that the walls of that bucket are extremely cold, the water could freeze over the drain, making that the first bucket to fill up.
So I would say 4.
Because the inlet and outlet of 2 are the same size, 2 will always be filled last, if at all. Once 5 is filled, it will spill out the edges of the container rather than back flowing.
Technically if it's faster, then at some point 3 will start to get water. Due to 2 overflowing and filling the space between the 2 cups.
6 probably, maybe would, but not 100% sure.
Which means that really 4 can't fill up over time.
Could be 7 if the 2 to 5 pipe is tiny.
Is the faucet flowing?
Yeah nothing will fill up until 5 is full. And then since 4 has a leak it, I think basically ONLY 5 will fill.
Assuming there's a floor it'd be 5 first, then 7, then 4 and 6 basically tie, followed by 2, then a million gallons later 3, and it looks like 1 is last because it's a tiny bit higher
The line is blocked between 2-3, so 3,6,&7 don't get anything.
It's gonna spill out and assuming there is a floor and it's not an infinitely bottomless pit, the water will hit the floor, and the water level in the floor will rise. Keep in mind the very first thing I said was "assuming there is a floor"
Given enough pressure, bucket 1 will never be filled, and it will overflow to 2 and 3. Depending on the flow, 2 could be the first to fill up.
I like the explanatory drawing you provided.
4 before 6 because of the hole in 4.
2 and 3 at the same time.
I think you're right about 4, it's been like 20 years since I thought about how water works lol, once that hole is submerged, 4 fills, right?
even if there’s no floor, they will all fill eventually. it may cause another noah’s ark situation, but what matters is that all the containers will be filled.
And this is why math is a useless major
I think 3 would fill up sooner than waiting for millions of gallons to flood the room, once 2 is full it would over flow the areas to the left and right of it, and assuming 1 is a little higher, 3 would start filling up at that point.
3/6/7 can’t be filled, the hole between 2>3 is plugged.
Assuming there's a floor eventually water levels will rise and breach the rim. They aren't sealed up top
It was your comment that made me realise
It was your comment that made me realize, agtwr a day later. Damn
