Question
Why two holes are made to empty an oil tin?
Advertisements
Solution
When oil comes out through a tin with one hole, the pressure inside the tin becomes less than the atmospheric pressure, soon the oil stops flowing out. When two holes are made in the tin, the air keeps on entering the tin through the other hole and maintains pressure inside.
