The speed of the tide between those islands is something like 5-6mph, and in some places much much higher (think tens of miles an hour). Water is 800 times more dense, so moving water contains much much much more kinetic energy when its moving. But that also means it has a lot more drag. That drag can be quadratic, meaning that you'd need to a monster fucking cable to stop it being dragged away by the tide. |
