    Theres a problem with water physics...

    It's hard to explain so I took a picture.

    According to physics what is supposed to happen is that the water balances out over the two sides.


    But it doesn't.

    This was pointed out in another thread in which I provided simple pseudocode that, in a more advanced form, could possibly be used to solve this and similar problems. If I could ever find my physics notes I will post a version of the code I have that also takes into account air pressures.

    EDIT: Here's the other thread.
