  2. Drop (liquid) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drop_(liquid)

    Water drops on a leaf A water drop falling from a tap. A drop or droplet is a small column of liquid, bounded completely or almost completely by free surfaces.A drop may form when liquid accumulates at the end of a tube or other surface boundary, producing a hanging drop called a pendant drop.

  3. Water table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_table

    The slope of the water table is known as the “hydraulic gradient”, which depends on the rate at which water is added to and removed from the aquifer and the permeability of the material. The water table does not always mimic the topography due to variations in the underlying geological structure (e.g., folded, faulted, fractured bedrock).

  4. Stalagmometric method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stalagmometric_method

    The drops hanging on the bottom of the tube start to fall when the volume of the drop reaches a maximum value that is dependent on the characteristics of the solution. At this moment, the weight of the drops is in equilibrium state with the surface tension. Based on Tate’s law: [5] =

  5. Water table (architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_table_(architecture)

    A water table is a projection of lower masonry on the outside of a wall, slightly above the ground, or at the top of a wainscot section of a wall (in this case also known as a sill). It is both a functional and architectural feature that consists of a projection that deflects water running down the face of a building away from lower courses or ...

  6. Splash (fluid mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splash_(fluid_mechanics)

    Slow motion video of a fruit falling into water. In fluid mechanics, a splash is a sudden disturbance to the otherwise quiescent free surface of a liquid (usually water).The disturbance is typically caused by a solid object suddenly hitting the surface, although splashes can occur in which moving liquid supplies the energy.

  7. Surface tension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_tension

    The animation (below) shows water adhering to the faucet gaining mass until it is stretched to a point where the surface tension can no longer keep the drop linked to the faucet. It then separates and surface tension forms the drop into a sphere. If a stream of water were running from the faucet, the stream would break up into drops during its ...

  8. Soda straw - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soda_straw

    In soda straws, as each drop hovers at the tip, it deposits a ring of mineral at its edge. It then falls and a new drop takes its place. Each successive drop of water deposits a little more mineral before falling, and eventually a tube is built up. Stalagmites or flowstone may form where the water drops hit the cave floor.

  9. Watertable control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watertable_control

    In geotechnical engineering, watertable control is the practice of controlling the height of the water table by drainage.Its main applications are in agricultural land (to improve the crop yield using agricultural drainage systems) and in cities to manage the extensive underground infrastructure that includes the foundations of large buildings, underground transit systems, and extensive ...
