I know this probably quite a stupid but here goes, lets say you have a spout mixer kitchen tap the cold water is on main as usual and the hot is gravity with a non return valve.
here comes the stupid bit, if you were to grip the tap with both hands very tightly (stopping the water coming out the tap) and turn on mains cold could you stop it? or would the mains pressure be powerful enough to blow the spout in air and flood the kitchen?.
I know its a very stupid question but a young apprentice asked. so what would happen?
