Another kitchen one. I always assumed the strongest water flow was closest to the faucet, but actually the water just about to hit the sink works better. This discovery has been useful for rinsing out things like cake icing tips and tea infusers.
Plus the stream seems to adhere into a narrower cross-section lower down, further increasing pressure, at least with aerated faucets. It could just be the result of lengthening from increased velocity, which may not actually lead to increased pressure.

Potential energy getting converted to kinetic energy on the way down :)
