nstoolman1 Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 I am going with #3 also. Be sure to look at the line drawing. Not all the cups have open lines. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synopsis Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 (edited) Tricky, Tricky! On cup #3, the conduit to cup #4 is blocked at cup #3. The conduit from cup #3 to cup #5 is blocked at the end of the conduit at cup #5. On cup #2, the conduit to cup #6 is blocked at cup #2. Cup #7 has a hole in the bottom. Provided the flow into cup #1 is at a rate less than or equal to the outflow to cup #3, cup #3 will fill up first. If the water valve has no water supply, no cups will be filled while only cup #1 receives the drop of water noted in the diagram and does not fill or transfer water to cup #3. If there is a water supply to the water valve in the diagram that fills cup #1 extremely fast, then it is anybody's guess what cup fills after cup #1 depending on the actual water overflow profile. So, OK, my answer is what I highlighted since there is no noted water source to the water valve so it doesn't matter whether the water valve is opened any amount since there is no water supply.

Enigma2a Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 Synopsis, It does not matter as to the flow of the water from the tap. If the Tap only drips, the water will flow to cup #3 before any other cup other than cup #1. The pipe from cup #1 to #3 is lower than the pipe from #1 to #2. If you flood cup #1 with water, #1 will most likely fill up first, but the pipes to cups #3 and #2 will drain that cup fast, as the diameter of the pipes look to be the same as the mouth of the tap. Cup #2 will always drain out to cup #7 and then to the floor. So, the only one that would fill completely is cup #3. Quote Tricky, Tricky! On cup #3, the conduit to cup #4 is blocked at cup #3.

I'll stick to my answer since there is no visible supply to the valve and the only fluid noted in the diagram is the single drop that appears to be of less volume than the level of cup #1 overflow to cup #3 so only cup #1 gets any fluid but does not fill or overflow. Also, the diagram does not note the valve is or will be opened to discharge fluid to cup #1 whether or not there is a fluid supply to the valve. Due to the noted functions in the diagram, "No cup get filled firstly." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, OK, Moose 57 - are You suggesting the noted "fluid" is Your "favorite beverage"???!!! What, pray tell, might be that "favorite beverage" of Yours???!!! Are You enjoying Your "favorite beverage" now???!!! Are You enjoying (laughing at) all the silly engineering type comments being made (and rightly so) while You are enjoying Your "favorite beverage"???!!! I suspect it is past 5:00 pm on a Friday in Norway so I suspect "favorite beverages" are being enjoyed most everywhere now by Norwegians???!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyHi Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 As a farmer I beg to differ as to explanation. Clearly cups 4, 6 cannot be filled as no valve or opening. Nor can cup 5 be filled as pipe is closed. The next assumption is " full" meaning to the top right. So clearly cup 1 cannot as it drains to the lowest point first. Thus the off take towards 3 will siphon water ahead of any flows to 2 Hence cup 3 will fill first ahead of cup 7 as it isa bottomless cup. Cup 3 for me and the cows won't have to reach down too far to find water and hence will not break the float valve off. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially in Minnesota! lots of snow Is (Are) Your snowmobile(s) out of storage and fired up, yet???! Pillager is likely is likely worth the visit to swing through Magnum Research to see what is going on there. Lake Itasca and the head waters of the Mississippi are worth the visit as long as the log across the beginning of the Mississippi is still there. Pretty ingenious to use fishing trails during the summer as snowmobiling trails (groomed) during the winter. Cold is OK as long as dressed for it and stop off at cafes along the way for coffee or hot chocolate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
