Does water always find its own level?

Be careful how you answer.

Not if there are impediments to it doing so..

@Convivial There are no impediments for it doing so.

@TBIman you used the word "always"in the original question ....
TBIman · 41-45, M
@Convivial yes i did. i asked if water [u]always[/u] found its own level. I was looking for a simple yes, or no. I didn't get a "yes" or a "no." It is possible that I wasn't clear in the asking of my question.

Surely it just obeys the inverse square law of gravity as proposed by Issac Newton? The Earth is a sphere. attracting everything to its centre, including water. So I guess it would be more accurate to say that "water always finds it's gravtitional level"?

@sree251 You gotta exist somewhere.
sree251 · 41-45, M
@TBIman Yes, we do exist. It's obvious. We are talking to each other. It's not two people in conversation. Two people are inhabitants of the ball, known as Planet Earth. If you reject the idea of the ball, you must also reject the idea of people, you being one of them.

You don't have to exist anywhere. "Where" implies space as defined by physics. Be free of physics that has created not only the ball but the flat plane also. Get rid of physics. Then, you are free of the ball, the flat plane, space, and time.

@afreshstart77 I've never heard of the "inverse square law of gravity " but because gravity is false I am assuming that inverse square law of gravity is false as well.

the water level depends on the pressure exerted on the water by the elements with which the water forms this level

@fakable You are correct Margo. "water has no such property as "curvature" at all" If water is incapable of curving, how can we be living on a giant ball of water?
TBIman · 41-45, M
@fakable I see, and have [u]always[/u] seen perfectly flat water, and please don't give me the excuse of "what about a wave huh" I am talking about a body of motionless water, Not a droplet, or water in motion.

May I ask if you have ever looked into the obvious fact that the Earth is a motionless plane?
No. That's a simplification.

@Roundandroundwego I am talking about a "motionless" "body" of water. No single droplets or the meniscus when overfilling a cup.
@TBIman no such bodies of water exist. All matter is in motion.

In an environment in which gravity is present, yes.
TBIman · 41-45, M
@ChipmunkErnie What about in an environment without gravity? Like the one we live in. I'm sure you are aware that we only NEED gravity IF the Earth is some sort of ball. Which it 100% is [u]not[/u].
ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M
@TBIman That makes no sense, but whatever. Gravity exists on non-spherical bodies, too.
