The Phenomena of the cruise passes the Canal/Carlos Pueblo


The Phenomena of the cruise passes the Canal/Carlos Pueblo

There are two basic theorem applied to the phenomena of the huge
cruise passes the Canal, the density and the tunnel effect. European
engineers have successfully practiced such physical principle into good
uses, ship building and the old canal transportation technique. Density
is the weight divided by the volume and water is 1 means 1 mg/ml
while the cruise density is less than 1; therefore, the 162,000 tons can
be afloat. There are 6 locks on the Panama Canals to adjust the water
levels of the waterway from one lock to another 26 feet high is the
requirement. The entering and disposing of water to the man made lake
adjacent to the waterway is also based on another theorem, the gravity;
therefore, the water change involves no power at all.

Once the ship enters the first lock, everybody is anxious to watch. The Bliss
is a new ship designed for the scenery route of Alaska and is on the way to
that destination via the passage of the Canal. The ship is sit on the chamber,
the pond in between two locks, and the water is filled in to raise the water
level to 26 feet, on the measurement label. After the water level on both
chambers are in the same levels, the 2nd lock is opened automatically and the
huge ship is guided and towed by a powerful tug boat to pass the chamber and
the lock. On the U.K. 2000 miles canals and rivers system, the barge operators
are required to take turn to open the lock manually. It takes 10 hours to pass
6 locks on the Panama Canal while about 45 minutes to an hour to pass a
single lock in England. It is good to mention that the newly crown Japanese
Emperor has some experience of such phenomena when studying the English
water transportation for two years.

There is an original canal for ships with a little bit less weight side by side with
this newly addition of 48 miles. I walked around the observation lounge on
Deck 15 with sparkly windows around, a design for the glacier viewing in Alaska.
We started at 7 a.m. from the Caribbean Sea and reached to the Pacific side around
the sunset. We saw two or three huge containers mooring on the strait preparing
to enter the Canal. I could identify some of their names, Yang Ming and Evergreen,
famous Taiwanese cargo ships.

After the Canal passage, I went to have my 4 weeks land trip to the U.K. where the
weather was still very chilly and dam. A lady at the information center heard my
experience of the Panama Canal recommended me to visit local canals and I did
many times in England with additional taste of the unique waterway passage.
