A 12-year-old boy fell to his death from a balcony on a Royal Caribbean ship just before it docked in Texas on the final day of a weeklong cruise, according to reports.
The principle of minimum energy is essentially a restatement of the second law of thermodynamics. It states that for a closed system, with constant external parameters and entropy, the internal energy will decrease and approach a minimum value at equilibrium. External parameters generally means the volume, but may include other parameters which ...
For light air (less than 8 knots), the sail is at its fullest with the depth of draft between 13 and 16% of the cord and maximum fullness 50% aft from the luff. For medium air (8–15 knots), the mainsail has minimal twist with a depth of draft set between 11 and 13% of the cord and maximum fullness 45% aft from the luff.

The minimum power required, at a speed of 195 km/h (121 mph) is about 86 kW (115 hp); 135 kW (181 hp) is required for a maximum speed of 300 km/h (186 mph). Flight at the power minimum will provide maximum endurance; the speed for greatest range is where the tangent to the power curve passes through the origin, about 240 km/h (150 mph).
Incidents are rare on a voyage but here is what happens if someone falls off a vessel
For example, an observer on board an aircraft performing a turn with a load factor of 2 (i.e. a 2 g turn) will see objects falling to the floor at twice the normal acceleration of gravity. In general, whenever the term load factor is used, it is formally correct to express it using numbers only, as in "a maximum load factor of 4".
