Hello Kent,

The answer I got from our staff is that it will fly off to the sides
because of angular momentum.

Should I challenge them about my pee?

(Now everyone will go pee to see if theirs does too!)

I expect the others are correct about how it would exit a rifled tube.

Like a blooming flower and have little range. The rifling will make the water spin. Since water has mass that spin will pull that mas outwards. In the tube it is confined but once it exits the mass will be pulled outward causing a blooming effect.

- Be lost very shortly after exiting the tube and the water would continue on straight in the last direction it was moving...
     and
- If any spinning action were to remain in the stream (unlikely), then that would just cause it to disperse more due to centrifugal force once unconstrained.

If I squirt water through a plastic tube that has spiraling inside it, like the rifling in a gun barrel, will the water squirt straighter or further than if I just use a plain tube?
