5 ain’t getting any water though, the drain is capped. Has to be 3 IMO.
We did this in Engineering once, and it is 3 if its droplets of water falling,
if the faucet was opened to full threshold the small openings would get water to fall at a slower pace but it would fill to the top overflow and fill the closest bucket which is four.
Can't be 4; 4 is blocked off.
For anyone still wondering, the answer was already posted in the previous page or two.
If 3 overfills, the flow of water and movement will never let 3 fill if the faucet is opened at full force due to the water impact, the water that spills out of the bucket will flow at a set speed and splash of the tubes on the outside and fall inside 4. This is an outside the box function of worse case. we built a mock up of this very setup in real life and tested it, just because something is blocked doesn't mean life can't find another way around it. in this case water doesn't travel inside the tube it travels outside of it.
