reallyneedhelp2day!How would I drawing particle pictures of a can imploding using different amounts of water?

Question

I need help drawing particle pictures cause i have no clue how to draw them. I tested 5ml, 10ml, 20ml, and 30ml.
When 5ml the can crushes the most, when 30ml crushes the least. how do i draw this?

Answer 1

I think I know what you are saying. I think you heat up cans with water in them, seal the cans and watch them implode, or something like that. (Alternatively, you could suck the air out of the cans, which would have a similar effect).

I would draw the cans with a water line. The waterline varies based on the amount you fill the can. Down below the line draw lotsa particles. On top, a lot fewer particles.

When the can implodes, the water line stays the same. (Water is incompressible). Draw lotsa particles. Above the waterline, again draw widely spaced particles. They should also be a bit closer together in the crushed can than the uncrushed can described above. It is the fact that the air/steam mixture shrinks in volume as it cools which causes the cans to crush.

As an aside, the can with more water in it will crush the least. This is because the water is incompressible and will not crush.

Good luck
