Q860

The fact that two large ships travelling on close parallel courses in the same direction tend to move towards each other can be explained by

A.
Bernoulli's principle
Answer
B.
Magnetic properties of the ship's material
C.
Newton's third law of motion
D.
Earth's gravitational force

Answer: Option A

Solution

Answer: Option A
Solution:
The fact that two large ships travelling on close parallel courses in the same direction tend to move towards each other can be explained by Bernoulli's principle. The rapid flow of air between the two moving ships causes a reducton of pressure (Bernoulli's principle) , so they (the ships) are drawn closer together.
