There is a big wave of 10 meter at sea. Why does the aircraft carrier not run but sail for the waves?

The destructive power of nature is obvious to all. We can often see some news about earthquakes, typhoons and tsunamis on TV. Every natural disaster will bring casualties and property losses, so human beings are constantly upgrading their technology. Especially when the tsunami comes, people have always been impressed by the huge impact of the big waves on the sea. We will find a strange phenomenon, that is, when the waves on the sea are tens of meters high, the aircraft carrier is not running but heading for the big waves. Why? I learned a lot.

As we all know, the aircraft carrier is one of the most powerful weapons in the world, and its appearance is often accompanied by a whole fleet. The full displacement of a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier can reach 654.38+10,000 tons, which is strong enough to threaten some small countries. However, even with such a powerful weapon, the hull will be equipped with a weather forecasting system to know the weather on the sea at any time and anywhere. If there is a typhoon or tsunami, it will avoid the central area and make an early detour. However, some people have questioned this. Why rush to the big waves to wash sand?

In fact, in this case, it may be a typhoon or tsunami. At this time, the aircraft carrier can't detour in advance, so it can only use its own design and tonnage to press the waves forward, instead of running away or driving sideways. Both of these behaviors can be dangerous. Let's have a look. First of all, a huge wave of 10 meters was set off on the sea, and the aircraft carrier was heading for the waves. That's because when a tsunami happens, the farther away from the coast, the smaller the damage, because the waves will only form great power on the coast, and in the deep sea, it may be only a few meters or 10 meters high, so the aircraft carrier is heading for the waves to avoid greater damage.

Secondly, the tonnage of the aircraft carrier itself is very heavy, and the deck is at least 30 meters above sea level, so the aircraft carrier has very strong wave suppression ability. Even 10 meters high waves will not endanger the safety of the aircraft carrier. At most, it only allows the aircraft carrier to have a small swing. In this case, the waves of the aircraft carrier can generally pass smoothly. Finally, not only the aircraft carrier, but also other warships with smaller tonnage will sail in the direction of the waves when they encounter the waves with a height of 10 meters. Warships will rely on the design of their own ships to cut waves through the bow. If the warship takes the way of escape at this time, it is likely to be directly submerged by the big waves behind it. If they take a side-by-side approach, they are likely to be overthrown. Therefore, breaking waves is the best driving direction for ships when they encounter big waves.

Finally, the headmaster thinks that the reason why the aircraft carrier can move smoothly in the big waves is mainly because of its tonnage. After all, an aircraft carrier can reach 6.5438+10,000 tons when it is fully loaded, and it will travel very smoothly on the water, and its high "body" and huge tonnage provide it with strong wave suppression ability, so even if it is a big wave with a height of 654.38+ 00 meters, the aircraft carrier can sail smoothly to the big wave. However, aircraft carriers also have wind resistance ratings. Aircraft carriers can generally resist typhoons around 12, but the typhoon level is far more than that. Typhoons of 16 and 18 have never happened before, so the aircraft carrier fleet will be equipped with meteorological monitoring instruments to find typhoons and tsunamis in time and prevent them in time.
