Question

An astronaut cannot use a straw to sip a drink on the surface of the moon

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

1. An astronaut cannot use a straw to sip a drink on the moon because on the moon no atmosphere is present.
2. To sip a drink with the help of a straw pressure inside the moon is to be less than the atmospheric pressure. because when you suck out of the straw, it creates a vacuum. This causes a decrease in air pressure on the side of the straw. Since the atmospheric pressure is greater on the outside of the straw, the liquid is forced into and up the straw and into your mouth

Hence, the given statement is True
