tiny leaks, misaligned capillaries, or temperature changes that gently alter viscosity.

Using a more regulated pressure source, like a pump, would assist keep the pressure
differential steady and enhance the lab. Using capillaries with more accurate measurements
and using temperature control to guarantee constant viscosity could be two more
enhancements. Reducing human error in flow rate recording may also be possible with more
precise timing devices. All things considered, Poiseuille's Law offers a solid theoretical
foundation, but these real-world drawbacks emphasize the necessity of meticulous control in
experimental settings to provide reliable results.
