Indeed it will, I could remember my secondary school days. My best subject happened to be physics. You have to understand how this field blends with forces, this is something that many take lightly. Another to add to the collection is the chemistry power. Of course these two subjects are highly interwoven. I was never a good student of chemistry anyway. ALL those test upon test were very confusing to me and in the end it turned out boring. I was happy I was able to secure approved marks during those days.

At some point you get to realize why Isaac Newton spent his time trying to understand nature's wonders and from here, my conclusion will be; doubt less. You know one of the field that gives life to inanimate objects is physics. This is when you will realize everything has life only if you can apply the needed wilding techniques. What make an inanimate object respond to a remote. We go again! There is a censor, IC and Blah! Blah!! Blah!!!. What if? Just what if!!!?

Why am I on this topic today? One of my guys just got overwhelmed by an outcome that left him in early fear. He happens to be a supervisor in a petroleum filing station. The story is good to hear, not experience and secondly, all ended just fine. I wasn't able to get all his details but with my knowledge in physics I was able to get a quick inside to his experience. It was more of a temperature effect that yielded wrong readings.

According to him, they were working on one of their underground tanks and as it happened, he decided to cover the waste pipe. You know that waste pipe that comes up from an underground tank. That seems to be no big deal. It became a thing of concern when they were about to dip the final tank for night closing. A shortage of up to 3000 liters of AGO. You know at first it will seem as a joke until it was done over and over again with the same result. Could there be a tank leakage? Or is the meter faulty and over pumping to the customer's benefit? One of those suggestions. This was my concern yesterday when one is operating from a nonproductive end.

Minutes turn to an hour and probably more according to the long wait for a conclusion as he was explaining. Finally, salvation showed up, one of his team members told him to go and uncover the waste pipe so the product could be complete. Do that not sound insane? Immediately that was done, a bubble and pressure release was heard from the tank and the dipping was NOW complete. I hope we have physics gurus over here to help me explain more. I would have love to do a direct net research but I feel like testing knowledge here to learn in a different way.

What was his own takeback? The center pipe (for dipping) was in suffocation causing it to release its liquid content gradually to the underground tank itself. Let me see how to explain further. In the middle of their underground tank is a center pipe for proper dipping. The liquid in the center pipe is always at the same liters position with the entire tank. When the waste pipe was covered, every dispensation from the pump meter was sucking out the little air within the center pipe and it will have to give out its liquid content to the surface tank.

Products in the tank will be complete but reading from the center pipe will be wrong. I don't know how accurate he has been in the experiment explanation although I get a glimpse of where he is going. As I earlier said, this article is open for professional contributions. I am still curious to learn more about this experiment.

In conclusion, let me add, poor him, I am just wondering how he would have been able to explain to his boss that he knows nothing about such a high product shortage. It wouldn't have been an easy one to go through, such things leads to sacking and probably a police arrest for products settlements. This would have been physics humiliating and making a mockery of him. Funny to say but indeed would have been one painful experience. What have I learned again? Pay attention to details, when you come to a state of confusion, TRY replaying all your previous steps, wonders won't end.
