... 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC Nice fairytale; and given all the time at sea, those sailors certainly would have had the time to dream it up; and, it is easy for one to imagine as holding water. However, the rising and falling of the ships would create a "pumping effect" between the said ships ... As, the ships rise on the wave, the ships tend to be "pushed" together by the fact that water on all the outsides of the ships finds it easier to flow up to, and onto, the ships, leaving a "partial vacuum" in between the ships due to the fact water "flowing in" between the ships faces more resistance getting in their. Now, as the wave subsides, the ships are "held together" by the fact the water "flowing out" between the ships faces much more resistance than the water flowing away on the outsides ... the ships eventually end up touching. While the Casimir Effect may, or may not, relate to this phenomenon in some esoteric and abstract way--I rather doubt it! silly grin QUIT PULLING RICHARD! I FEEL MY ONE LEG, YOU ARE PULLING, GETTING LONGER ALREADY. :-) Regards, JS |
