A drinking straw is dipped in a pan of water to depth d from the surface (see figure below). Now water is sucked into it up to an initial height $h_0$ and then left to oscillate. As a result, its height $y$ from the surface of the water varies periodically. Ignoring damping, the equation for $y$ is ( $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity):
