The above diagram is supposed to represent a bucket half filled with water on
the surface of which a ball is flaoting.
If the bucket is rotated rapidly around point P, does the ball sink lower,
flaot higher or stay at same level?

One doesn't want to jump on the flame wagon, but the irony you flag
for the individual who want to demolish relativity, and then comes
back to ask about a simple question in buoyancy, is indescribably
delicious.
I personally would want to at least master buoyancy before moving on
to demolish Einstein, but then Mr. Wilson's genius could not wait.
Oops... I've jumped on the wagon after all.

Don't hesitate. Jump, it's fun. And for the flamed it seems to
be even more than fun... It is food and drink - they love it.

None of the above.
As the ball rotates from below point P, to above point P, its level
changes.

You control the ship , You were raised on the sea ,

I disagree. Most often sea sickness is motion sickness and has more to do
with the inner ear than with a panic attack.
Pmb
Then why do cigarettes make T.J.'s crew puke ?
Why does mentioning the word " Tuna " cause puking ?
I'm not saying that T.J.'s crew could stop puking
if they just controlled their minds better ,
sometimes sedatives ( Shudder ) are the only answer .
The mind is bizarre like that , often uncontrollable .
It's the mind that causes the puking .
Got me. Perhaps the smoke aggravattes the nausea
> Why does mentioning the word " Tuna " cause puking ?
Same thing.
Have they tried dramamene?
Pmb
If motion sickness were caused by motion ,
then explain this to me :
Why do drivers Not get sick while passengers so ?
Motion sickness is purely mental ,
but that does not mean that
anyone can prevent it by thinking differently .
Sometimes sedatives are the Only answer .
I don't have to tell you what a crappy option that is .
These are not the same things. Motion sickness results when there is a
conflict in information which the brain is recieving from visual sensors and
from the inner ear.
See - http://healthlink.mcw.edu/article/907367055.html
This happens to astronauts too. I don't see why you think there is a
relationship between motion sickness and panicing. this has been studied
extensively with astronauts.

Then why do you think Dramamene works? It's not a seditive.
Motion sickness doesn't happen in just boats either. It happens whenever
there is a conflict in sight and motion like in an airplane or in an
elevator etc.
Pmb
Dramamine is a sedative .
From :
http://www.asma.org/Publication/abstract/v68n10/68-890.htm
" Dramamine's effectiveness may be related to
its sedative properties "
And let's not quibble over the word " Sedative " ,
any pill that has a " Calming effect " ,
will help prevent motion sickness .
That's a mental state ... It's not a corporal one .
Re: How drivers don't get motion sickness ,
You say ,
" Motion sickness doesn't happen in just boats either .
It happens whenever there is a conflict in sight
and motion like in an airplane or in an elevator etc. "
No , That happens only in people who
really Really hate those conditions .
It's not that different from claustrophobics .
It's all in the mind ... Not corporal .
Again , I'm not saying that everyone can control
what they think , all the time ...
Regrettably , " Calming drugs " are often necessary .

I understand that is what you believe. What scientific evidence do you have
that its true? What scientific basis is there for your claim? Are you
claiming that all of Nasa's work on motion sickness is bogus and that you've
proved that it's all panic attacks? How have you proved this?

Thanks. I've never taken it as dramamine. However I've taken it many times
now that I see what it is.
It's a drug that makes you sleepy. All it really is is an antihystamine -

That's not true. On what are you basing this assumption? I've gotten motion
sickness plenty oif times. It happens when I read in the car. The motion as
detected by my inner ear does not jive with what I see. So that screws
things up. But that doesn't mean that I hate the condition of being in a
car. I love going for a ride.
Pmb
You ask ,
" Is there a reason that you think
your brain is not connected to your body ? "
From Dictionary.COM
" corporal , adjective ,
affecting or characteristic of the body
as opposed to the mind or spirit "
There are obviously inflictions that effect only the Mind .

Screws what things up ? Your mind ?
I imagine that , like me ,
you concentrate deeply when you read ,
Then the car swerves , you get startled ,
your heart races , etc. .
It's all Mental ,
It has to do with your persistent mental habits ,
how Deeply you concentrate ,
and how you react to being startled at that time .
The mind is also primal ,
You can't always control it without the aid of drugs .
Continuing with this same topic ,
How motion sickness only happens in people who

like claustrophobics .

" What scientific basis is there for your claim ?
Are you claiming that all of Nasa's work on motion sickness

And you also asked about what proof I have that
any " Calming drug " abates motion sickness .
No , I haven't looked at any scientific studies at all ,
But I don't have to , I know from experience that
motion sickness is :
_ A mental infliction .
_ It's partially due to my mental history .
( Possibly related to my tendency to concentrate deeply )
_ It's partially due due to my primal ,
immutable , mind . e.g. Being startled .
_ " Calming drugs " abate the symptoms .

benedryl is not damaging.
Arriving at conclusions only from personal experience is the worst way to
form a scientific conclusion. It's often proved wrong. Nasa's research has
proven that to be the case here since they've done the research.

What " scientific conclusion " ?
I could cite links , but I don't have to .
I Understand motion sickness .
It's possible to read all day long about motion sickness
and still not Understand it .
over the years , I've absorbed a lot of data about it .
No , Motion sickness is merely similar to panic attacks .
It's a racing of the heart ,
it's a primal reaction to certain mental scenarios ,
including a fatigued mind due to over concentration .
It's mainly a feeling of a loss of control .
But like many other such mental disabilities ,
it often requires " Calming drugs " .
Motion sickness is partly due to your primal mind ,
which is fairly immutable ,
and partly due to your present mental robustness ,
and partly due to your mental habits ,
and partly due to what's happening to you .
That means there are negative side effects to the brain in some cases. It
doesn't mean it damages the brain. However one has to be careful when
reading side effects. They describe *all* side effects which were
experienced by the entire group of individuals on which they tested the
drug. It may even be that the side effects were not caused by the drug.
I was speaking about actual permanent damage.
Pmb
Just look at Rush Limbaugh , he lost his hearing .
Benadryl is like that too ,
it's known to cause permanent
blurred vision , vertigo , tinnitus .
Like all drugs , Benadryl is a poison ,
the liver has to metabolize it .
There is a direct correlation between
metabolism and longevity .
Just imagine if you should cryogenically hibernate ,
you'd live a long time ... Right ?
( But that's not a very active life , is it ? )
On a per pound basis ,
squirrels consume oxygen seven times faster than horses ,
therefore horses live seven times longer .
The less food you give rats and worms over the months ,
the slower they age and the longer they live .
It's just a Hard Fact !

Maybe I ask simply to find out if anyone here actually knows anything about
physics. Present indications are that they don't.
What difference does the size of the ball make?
What if the ball is compressible (more or less so than water)?
Does the surface of the water become spherical rather than flat?
What is the effect of the vastly different pressure gradient in the water?

Funny that insomnia was listed as a side effect. It was precisely for
insomnia that I took Benadryl (no physician was consulted for a
reason) every night for the second half of my grad school years, about
1 - 1&1/4 year.
Sedation and sleepiness was exactly what I was after. Benadryl helped
me; was my *savior* at the time.
Nothing else was experienced except may be .....
Hypotension: My blood pressure is quite low NOW and but it was always
like that to begin with.
My days average out to about 25 hours long ,
sometimes longer , sometimes shorter .
I wake up at a different time every day ,
always later than before .
I find that I always sleep one third of the time ,
if I sleep more then I'll wind up being awake longer .
The long-term side-effects of taking a daily drug
are not obvious from day to day .
But they are surely there anyways .
Of course the water's density won't change. The change in weight of
the ball would be negligible, unless you are dealing with a REALLY
large axis of rotation, which would make the problem needlessly
complicated. Centripetal force is component of circular motion along
the <r> axis. Centrifugal force is a ficticious force. Centrifical
means nothing.
Well, looking at your problem, you are assuming that the ball is
floating on the surface of the water. Thus, the ball must be less
dense than that of the water, and the buoyant force must equal the
force of gravity, when it is not spinning, and rests, we'll say.
When the bucket is spinning (assuming uniform speed), the problem gets
more complicated, naturally.
At the lowest point in the spin, the buoyant force is greater than the
force of gravity, because the net force must point toward the centre
of the circle; distance between the ball and P is decreased; the ball
moves up.
At the top of the spin, both the buoyant and gravitational force act
in the same direction; the ball, again, is closer to P (moreso than
above, I believe), so the ball moves down.
From this, I would venture a guess that the ball follows a simple
harmonic motion with a max at the top, and a min at the bottom, though
the total distance between the ball and P is always less than that if
the ball was stationary.
It's been awhile since I've done fluid dynamics, so I could be
completely off on this one. Depends how simple of solution you're
looking for, too, I guess.

As I mentioned in a previous pots, those side effects cover everything.

An impending feeling of loss of control over the urge to puke.
In my limited experience I found that in the open air, able to see the
horizon, riding the bronco was exhilarating more than sickening: cold
spray in the face helped a great deal also. I felt like a Viking
rather than a puke.
OTOH, I once swam for a long time in the surf, swinging up and down
with the waves: it was also exhilarating and viking-like, but when I
climbed out on the beach I noticed the symptoms of sea-sickness! So
your mental state can control or suppress the symptoms, but there is
some real physiological effect to being shaken, not stirred, which
can't be erased.
That's called a bad reaction. Some people can die from eating
strawberries. But one doesn't normally say that strawberries cause
permanent damage.
Pmb
What a great story . Land sickness ? ha !
When you switch from swimming in the sea
to standing on dry land ,
you felt a sudden loss of control , You were confused .
Ha ! That's it ! Motion sickness is confusion .
If you concentrate too much , e.g. reading in a car ,
and then odd things happen in that car ,
like sudden swerves , you get excited and confused .
Your heart races and you might even puke .
You haven't seen my waist line then... Strawberry's Kill!!

would be compromised by exercise etc.

Too much exercise , too much food , too much drugs ,
all are known to shorten one's lifespan considerably .
Once again, I tend to agree with you, unfortunately.
However, I would emphasize the /oxygen/ theory. It's the eating of
higher-energy food that kills us. Take a Gallapagos turtle or tree
sloth. Sluggish, but eating lots of little things. A good grazer will
outlast a carnivore any day.
Re:exercise, I read what I thought was an interesting comment by a
/health expert/. He was saying that exercise is not the same as health
-- because most exercises are repetitive movements that we naturally
like to do. Why do we /jog/ -- well, for exercise, sure, but also
because it's fun to run. But when we run, we use up knee cartilege and
other resources because of /repetition/.
Real exercise means bending and stretching in ways that we would not
normally do.
The example of people who live in excess ,
too many drugs , too much food ,
and , yes , too much exercise ,
is simply that : An obvious case .
To see the finer points of the rate of living theory ,
you have to look at studies of rats , worms , etc. .
Interestingly ,
this same principle extends to Objects as well ,
e.g. The faster the cigarette burns ,
i.e. The deeper the drags ,
the shorter is it's lifespan .

Only half of them had the tits.
Al's half had minute penises (so the first half reckoned)
In our physics faculty there was only ONE solitary female - and she was flat
chested and terribly ugly.

Very Good John !
What formal degree(s) do you have ?
( Including when and where )

You have introduced another factor into this. However I think the same two
forces would act on the water too and so balance the effect you mention.
It would be best if we could eliminate the alternating effect of gravity from
this experiment. Maybe the rotation could take place in the horizontal plane.

If the ball is quite compressible, and the rotational speed sufficiently high,
I reckon the ball will sink.

Nothing wrong with that ... Why not live for today ?
Growing old is overrated , in my opinion .
Most people want to be cheetahs , not cows .

There's a party? :-)
There is Amanda Peet the theorist and Amanda Peet the actress. One
posits that the later would be a trophy to shelve and the former would
be the one to know. One can always hose down the scientist but you
cannot make the pretty one worth talking with.
