This is surely a factor? :)
What do you reckon?
Haha! Smudge I knew someone would give me some maths
BOB you ole pessimist did the yanks use all our resources again then?
Answer :
Thankfully the only matter actually displaced consists of wealthy old widows, couples from Hemel Hempstead celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary and forty-somethings with fake tans. Sending these out to sea seems rather fortuitous. Toodle pip.
I smell another conspiracy look 'ere "wealthy" people on top-heavy boat (in more ways than one) just gotta sink hasn't it?
Another opportunity for programs about treasure hunters/robbers and nauseous Hollywood tragic love films I can sense the Mills and Boon types will be heaving over this novel.
Answer :
As Smudge suggests - the linear effect of displacement will not cause a problem - however Chaos theory supposed that small changes can accrue - and lead to larger ones- we presume this is how eddies and whorls arrive in streams which can lead to crashing torrents - if the launch of the ship caused an initial wave - that wave could be the initial source which accrues- and be like the butterflies wings.
Answer :
3 scenarios that could make it happen are
1) If the ship was soooooo large that it raised the sea level through out the entire world.
2) A very very very very large ship launched from Ireland that caused a tidal wave so large that it transversed the ocean and covered Britian.
3) The conditions were so right that wave interference created a large tidal wave.
In reality though, I don't see any of those scenarios ever happening.
Answer :
the surface area of the sea is 36100000000000 m^2 or 36100000 km^2
the volume of water displaced by the oasis of the seas is 160,000 m^3
This would mean that the average increase in sea depth is 4.43 x10^-9 m which is 0.00000443mm so is going to make very little change at all
Answer :
I think you will find that the vast mass of materials used to construct this Leviathan has somewhat decreased the mass of Dear Old Blighty. Thus Blighty will float more precariously upon the Earth's upper mantle. Thus leading to ten years of drought, famine and pestilence.
I hope I helped.
Answer :
No but if the butterfly effect theory is correct then there should be a tsunami on the other side of the world!
Answer :
Well, it didn't do this when it stopped off at Southampton on it's way across the Atlantic. But it wasn't launched there so I don't suppose it would!
Answer :
Doubt it old fruit, Brown has bled the country so dry the moment the wave hits blighty it will be sucked in and lost forever.
