Isn't that drop experiencing the same pressure as well? If so, what causes the fluid to escape?

- notatoad 6y agothat droplet would be experiencing the same pressure from the air pushing inward, but also a pressure pushing outward proportional to the amount the egg has contracted. more pressure pushing out than in means fluid comes out.
- ac42 6y agoWhy would the egg contract in the first place? It's more likely that the "applied pressure" is simply negative...

- majewsky 6y agoIt's the same as when you squeeze a plastic bottle. If the cap is unscrewed, the liquid will splash out of the opening. The egg is just a bit less flexible than the plastic bottle, so the effect is less visible.
