The apex will be set at two different heights. The difference in height (h)
between the two pitchers will be kept constant. The flow rate will be
recorded.
To observe the effects of changing the relative height of the pitchers, we will
maintain the lower pitcher at a constant height while adjusting the height of
the higher pitcher. The flow rate will be recorded.
A manometer will be created by adding a section of tubing connected by the
T-joint to the apex of the siphon as shown in the sketch. Fluid will be added
to manometer, providing a qualitative pressure sensor (compared to
atmospheric) at the apex.
