TY - JOUR AU1 - Jewett, John V. AB - In general science and also in junior physics classes the arrangement of apparatus before the pupils combined with the Socratic method of discovery will hold interest and consequently instruct more thoroughly than a prearranged demonstration wherein the pupil tries to prove results in exact figures only to find that things do not seem to work as they ought. After my pupils had worked with me in the following manner they welcomed Pascals Law as a fact that they had discovered. I claim no perfection in the following arrangement, but I do claim for it a correct method. ^D i a-q r a-Tn /. DIAGRAM No. 1. APPARATUS. Constructed in class. Two pieces of glass tubing each end bent at right angles and joined by a piece of soft rubber tubing. Two U-tubes, A and C, joined by tubing and supported by ring stands as shown. Weight B. Colored water (red) drawn in to some convenient level as x y. DEVELOPMENT. What is in the tube? Colored water. Is the pressure at x and y the same? Yes, one atmosphere. When B is placed on the tubing what happens? Water rises in A and C.
