Illustration: At a kitchen sink, a parent holds one end of a dry cleaning cloth beneath a running tap. Water strikes the fabric, creating a visibly darker soaked patch that spreads toward the still-dry end, while droplets fall into the basin. Their other hand keeps the remaining cloth clear of the stream.
