Lusi Mirawati 109321417106 B-D Physics Parade of Marine Animals Marine fish looks comfortable swimming and enjoying

the wonderful world of water The dolphin show their acrobat happily in the water while occasionally appear on the surface of and invite the admiration of all who witnessedits attractions. What a beautiful view of the world oceans, how much fun enjoying the fantastic spectacle of the sea animals are shown. And another one that is often not realized, how the abundance of lessons from the activities of marine animals, particularly lessons related to physics. Fishes can float and sink in seawater. Penguins and whales will ever sink without the need to swim at all, while dolphins and sharks must keep swimming to avoidsinking to the seabed. Concepts of physics that can explain this phenomenon is the buoyancy (the upward force). Marine animals which have a density greater than the density of water will sink to the seabed, while the animals which have a density ofless than the density of water will float. Many marine fish have a similar density tothe density of sea water so that they can float. The density ofmarine animals are influenced by the amount of air trapped in the lungs, feathers,and fins to swim. The more air that can fit the larger the volume of the animal so thatits density gets smaller. In fish buoyancy is controlled by the amount anddistribution of gas within the body. This is primarily enclosed within a gasfilledbuoyancy organ, the swim bladder. In addition to the above-hat hat, there are many forces of swimming fish. The forces acting on a swimming fish are weight, buoyancy, and hydrodynamic lift in the vertical direction, along with thrust and resistance in the horizontal direction. For negatively buoyant fish, hydrodynamic lift must be generated to supplement buoyancy and balance the vertical forces, ensuring that they do not sink. Many fish achieve this by continually swimming with pectoral fins their extended. However, since the induced drag is generated as a side effect of this technique, the balance between horizontal forces will be disturbed, calling for further adjustments for the fish to maintain a steady swimming speed. Swimming involves the transfer of momentum from the fish to the surrounding water (and vice versa). The main momentum transfer mechanisms are via drag, lift, and acceleration reaction forces. Swimming drag consists of the following components: (1) skin friction between the fish and the boundary layer of water (viscous or friction drag), (2) pressures formed in pushing water aside for the fish to pass (form drag), and 3) energy lost in the vortices formed by the caudal and pectoral fins as they generate lift or thrust (vortex or induced drag). Every day these marine animals continue to show exciting attractions like the parade of physics in the world ocean. Humans have often and will continue to learn from life in this fascinating underwater.
