  1. Huh. Excellent question. My uneducated guess would be yes. But, then again, I'm not educated on the matter...


  2. No. Think about being caught in a rain storm. When it rains lightly you see small drops coming down. When it is pouring there are large drops. In fact fog is water drops too small to make out the individual ones. So there is a demonstration of the range of sizes.

  3. no not even rain drops have the same volume you would need more contral over prusser

  4. I would like to think so. But I have no proof.

  5. No. Volume is the amount of mass an object takes up.

  6. Are all drops the same size? No... their circumference can vary depending on the size of your faucet.  If circumference varies, so does the radius (r).

    (pi)(r^2)=circumference of your drop

    (4/3)(pi)(r^3)= volume of your drop

    If r changes, so will the volume.
