jdemaris, Sure it works - one proves it to themselves every time they use a straw to drink their soda. Another way one can see how a liquid is "pushed" out of a pressurized tank is to do the following. Next time you order a soda at a fast food restaurant get it with two straws and a lid. Drink some of the soda so that its level is about an inch below the cups rim. Then poke one straw through the lid until it almost touches the bottom and seal it with some chewing gum. Now take the other straw and stick it thru the lid so that it is above the level of the soda and seal it too. Now blow into that straw and the soda will come out of the straw that reaches to the bottom of the soda. One of the nice things about having a tank rigged so that the liquid is pumped from the top with a tube to the bottom is that any sediment will not go thru the pump and cause damage. Oh... just thought of something else that uses this idea! I don't know if this is still done now but the spray cans of paint etc. would use liquid propane as the propellant. This works great since the propane will maintain a constant pressure from the can if the temperature is constant.
