Yes, their heights aren't near 1.4 times their diameters; these are mainly the wide plastic pyrex beakers.

If they are the wide ones doesn't that give a disadvantage because of heat loss?

Hum I could see how but it is still the same amount of water

With a wider beaker there will be greater surface area for heat loss. It shouldn’t affect it much though.

[TheChiScientist]

That is what I was thinking

(Of course, you should follow the rules as closely as possible in case of a strict ES)

[TheChiScientist]

Yes, that can be a nightmare at times

I would honestly like a somewhat strict ES because in many competitions some people get away without following the rules. I have never had my kit and cheatsheet ever checked this one time in potions.

[TheChiScientist]

True. The ES that runs the events at times cannot follow the rules correctly and that screws some people up. For me I follow the rules by the book

When doing pressure equations with the pressure initially given in Pascals, for our answers would we use Pascals or Atms; I had a question as the such given to me which asked for hydro static pressure, with the external pressure given in Pascals. Answered with Pascals, but still don't know if I got the question right as it was a regional, and the tests have not (and might not ever) be released.

[TheChiScientist]

Well, that's weird can't help yea there?
