| If a plastic bottle, filled to the top with water, is tightly closed with a lid, and then a hole is made with an awl in its bottom, then water will not pour out of the bottle through this hole. However, it is worth slightly unscrewing the lid, and water begins to flow out of the hole in the bottom, until all of it flows out. Explain this experience.
If you open the bottle cap, atmospheric pressure will push the water out of the bottle.
