    All I know is, 7 is leaking out.

    Wouldn’t scale and viscosity play a role? Seriously, imagine a river vs a capillary tube. Also how many dimensions? And forces involved? Is that a blockage between 2 and 3? Are the walls breakable? How will the fluid hold air? Are the lines into structure 5 lower than the walls? Is this in a vacuum?

      Also, these structures are all 2 dimensional.

      It does not specify what they are being filled with. They are all already filled with air.

      There is no mention of any fluid involved, just a faucet. So lets think inside of the box and assume we have some form of 2d-gravity and it is going to rain a newtonian fluid? I think most surface area on the top is draining into 5. If it snows the whole sheet can turn white and the problem is gone, too.

    There’s only one “one” in the diagram, so I’m gonna say the one marked “1.” Pretty easy.

      Depends on how fast the liquid is flowing in.

      Or, actually, can they even “fill”? These are 2D objects.

        As other replies have said and linked to, it’s meant to be “loss”

        Though OP slightly changed the template to fit the puzzle, as the right hand corner is meant to have the shorter piece. That threw me off as well.

    5, but it also depends on the circumstances. What liquid is used, temperature, viscosity, etc. There’s some material science stuff that’s far beyond the intended scope of this question.

        1 fills up halfway, which then overflows in 2. The bottom of 2 has a pipe running out of it, which is directed into 5

          I depends on the inflow vs outflow of 1 - it might fill up first. But otherwise, yeah, i would say 5 as well.

    I came in to comment, “it probably would probably be 5, but I think it would depend on the flow rate?”

    But reading the other comments, it looks like I’m OOTL on something? 🧐

      this is right. Even if 2 to 3 is open.

      The only other candidate is 1. If the faucet has much higher flow than the pipe from 1 to 2 can drain away, then 1 can fill up faster than it drains.

      • @[email protected]

        5 is correct but this is a loss leader.

  • Hildegarde

    1 fills up first. the spigot is much winder than the tube so the glass will fill faster than it can drain.

      That’s assuming the valve is open all the way and that there’s a bunch of water pressure behind the spigot. It should be entirely possible to create a very slow trickle by having a massive body of water behind the spigot (making it functionally infinite) but having only a small part of the entrance beneath the surface.
