Well considering a perfect directional movement if the liquid is not comprimible then it should not move at all, right?

- ithkuil 3y agoThat would also require the molecules to be arranged in regular crystal with an axis parallel to the direction of shaking and also maintain that arrangement which for a liquid would require the molecules to be perfectly still (absolute zero) since a material with vibrating molecules that stay in a crystalline arrangement would be otherwise called a solid.
- downboots 3y agoLiquid not compressible does not mean at the molecular level. The model is one of 'springy balls'. Even in a solid rod if you hit one end, the wave propagates on the other side. A drop of food dye on a closed container with water would nevertheless diffuse or flow.
