Pengajaran dari post ini.
critical thinking....
"Cuba bayangkan .........Allah ciptakan makhluk yang terbesar didunia ini ikan paus, dan ikan paus (binatang yang terbesar didunia) hanya memakan plankton (makhluk yang teramat kecil)....cuba bayangkan kalau binatang terbesar didunia ialah pemakan daging....mesti pupus segala hidupan laut sekiranya paus ini memburu......segala penciptaan Allah ada hikmahnya."
"The world largest animals (Blue whale) ate Plankton (smaller animal) as its foods, can you imagine ...if the world largest animal (Blue whale) is created as a carnivore (meat eater), if is it, you can see how fast the sea-life extinct , and i beg under the sea will be the dangerous place in the world ....so back to reality the blue whale ate plankton .......Allah knows what is the best for His creation and for all creature in the world.

Fascinating Facts: Iceberg only shows 1/9 of its original size from the above water?

Have u ever heard of this quote ?



From surface u only can see this tiny little ice.

But.....in reality
The size is this big which is 9 times bigger than what is shown on the surface. The shape of the underwater portion is difficult to judge by just looking at the portion above the surface.


SEVERAL FACTS REGARDING ICEBERG

1. SIZE



Note that the average iceberg weight for the Grand Banks area is one to two hundred thousand tonnes, and is about the size of a cubic 15 storey building.

2. How close can you get to an iceberg ?

It is dangerous to approach an iceberg because it will create a huge disturbance in the water which can upset a boat. There is no rule for safe space because certain icebergs may have long underwater rams which pose an even greater threat to an unwary vessel. Usually a minimum distance of the iceberg length should be kept though at this distance safety cannot be guaranteed. It is even more dangerous to attempt to get on an iceberg. Falling ice is a threat and a rolling berg can dump you in the very cold water before collapsing over on top of you.


3. World 's Largest Iceberg


B-15 Iceberg, Antartica

B-15 is the largest iceberg in the world which covers 6400m2 of sea surface area. This size even larger than the island of Jamaica .

3. How hard is iceberg ice?

The crushing strength is 1% of steel and 10% of concrete, though doesn't seem so hard, collision with the ship will cause disaster. The momentum collide with an iceberg can generate hundreds of tonnes of force that can cause it dent and crumple. Remember titanic ? The Titanic sinked because of an iceberg.


The Story of Titanic
  • There were 6 ice warnings received by Titanic on the day of the collision but they were all ignored the warning.
  • On that night, because the moon was not out, it very difficult to see iceberg from afar. When they discover the iceberg they already too late,and hit the iceberg.
  • 1503 people died. and only 705 survived
  • The temperature of the Atlantic sea is 31 degree which is the major cause the death among population.
  • There were many dogs aboard the Titanic. But only Two dogs survived
  • Charles was the only person to survive the ice cold Atlantic water. He was reported had been drinking heavily.....(maybe alcohol kept him warm...thats why he survived in the coldest ocean)

Titanic strikes iceberg, tearing plates from its bottom just as Murdock gives second order.

Titanic deep down in the darkest sea which is 2.33 miles at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. Titanic was discovered 74 years after it sank..before that nobody know the exact location.......see how dark under the sea...
