What? Atmospheric resistance, which I guess is denpressurese for one or other pressure-like thing, is greater than density? Apples and oranges man. Pressure is force per area and density is mass per volume, neither is greater than the other because they're totally different and unrelated things.
Remember when I said that denpressure is a push down force against resistance to that push?
Take a look at the glass and the card covering that glass. The atmospheric pressure is pushing down on the card sticking out from the glass but equal resistance is exerting the same force back under that card. Ok, have we got this?
Now then, the bottom of the upturned glass has a small amount of atmospheric pressure still inside it but it's extremely small compared to what is outside of it. The atmospheric pressure is pushing down on the glass bottom but that's all it can do because it cannot get in to equalise due to the bottom of the glass acting as a barrier.
This means that the amount of water in the glass is under minimal push from the little bit of trapped air inside which is no match for pushing the water out of the glass to overcome the atmospheric resistance of the atmosphere under the card.
The dense water cannot overcome it without that atmospheric push from above.
The apple and orange is a different thing because they are under that push from above so that density of the apple or orange is easily pushed through the resistant atmosphere below.
What is 'a barrier against density'? Try to not invent your own terminology, this is really difficult to follow.
The barrier is air resistance to the density of the water.
Can you say what is causing the vac... low pressure atmosphere in the glass when it's turned upside down to begin with
The lower pressure is because of the small amount of air trapped that cannot push with any force to overcome the larger force below the water due to the glass bottom creating a barrier against that push down pressure from above.
- and as a consequence of that, why does the water fall out without the card??
Because atmospheric pressure is always trying to equalise and if you give it a weak spot by taking away the card, it will simply push into the inside of the glass and force teh water out by a pressure push down as it always tries to equalise. It's about finding the wek point, which the card does not allow.
If you were to drill many holes in the middle of that card, the water would still not fall out because the atmosphere still cannot displace the water to get in and equalise. Drill near the edges and you make the passage easier for the pressure to get in.
Upside down glass is shielding the water from all directions except from below, where almighty air pressure is pushing it up, why does it fall??
Air pressure is not pushing it up. The air pressure is resisting the weak push on the water from the low pressure air inside.
