Physics Question
 

heeeeeeey, gene, I like breasts too, but I never confuse them with physics.

no, hoary, gene has lost any contact with reality on that one. maybe he was
watching the fat lady next hoping she would bend over towards him and give
him
a flash of upper breast.

gene, WTF are you talking about?


Jax,

How do broken ropes fly in JaxWorld?

Mark Browne

"for each force there is an equal and opposite force"

So...... if you are towing with an undersized chain, which deck gets
ripped off and which direction does it fly?


It's a Jax Gotcha, Jax.


For someone who is supposedly so astute in high school physics and
should have *some* short term memory left...... your cluelessness
shouts volumes....

Physics Question, rope snaping
 

small diameter (undersized for the job) 30' rope.

Question: When the rope snaps, which way will it go?

Should it snap back towards the boat in tow (the load). Or should it snap
toward the boat pulling the load (the force)?

I was always taught that you look at the worst case first, in other words
the rope snaps in the center. And in that case the ropes will snap to their
respective tie points

Nylon rope acts like a rubber band so you can experiment safely with small
versions without having any serious harm. (wear eye protection)
The worst case with a tow line is when the cleat pulls out. That will come back
like a missile and can punch a hole in your boat.
It can certainly spoil your day. The general rule is to give any line under a
strain a wide berth.

you guys are nuts. what the hell way *can* the rope go? It is tied solidly at
each end, it breaks somewhere in between. You think the rope is going to untie
itself so it can follow the other broken piece?

When the rope snaps from reading your extremely stupid reply, it will go get
a gun and come after you.

I see by your ignorant statement that you know nothing of vector
mechanics and or physics, huh?
