A simple faucet, using physics The construction of a simple faucet in the countryside using air pressure in a bottle. Water flows out of the yellow straw if the pressure in the bottle is greater than atmospheric pressure. By moving the blue straw up, we reduce the pressure on the end of it and air leaks through it. Because there is a leak, the air gap is reduced under the lid and the water flows out. By moving the blue straw down, we increase the pressure at its lower end due to the water column and the water stops flowing.

Rail welding Although in the past the rails had to have a gap between them to cope with temperature expansion/contraction, this technique is no longer applied to high-speed trains. The rails are welded together for several kilometers, and then heated to a high temperature to fully expand. Rail fasteners use very high clamping force, and so the contraction is much less. A second technique is the expansion joint, which may be different: it is no longer a mere gap, but a smooth joint where the two rails are side by side and when they grow or shrink in length they can slide next to each other.
