Plungers are commonly used in plumbing to help you unclog a drain. They are commonly used on toilets but can also be used on other items such as sinks. Most plungers have wood or plastic handles with rubber type suction cups on the end of them. A plunger works by forcing water, instead of air, through the toilet and down into the drain pipe. Air can be compressed but water can't. Water can also transmit pressure a lot more effectively than air can. The best types of plungers have a reverse cups or snouts attached to the front of the main cup. Plungers come in various lengths and sizes and can often be bought for less than $10 online.
