Why? A ship always displaces an amount of water that weighs the same as the ship, regardless of how heavily a ship may be loaded

# C% h/ U) z1 ]/ t# Q+ j- ]The Magdeburg Water Bridge is a navigable aqueduct in Germany that connects the Elbe-Havel Canal to the Mittelland Canal and allows ships to cross over the Elbe River. At 918 meters, it is the longest navigable aqueduct in the world.公仔箱論壇6 ^5 ~' N8 |6 u
The Elbe-Havel and Mittelland canals had previously met near Magdeburg but on opposite sides of the Elbe Ships moving between the two had to make a 12-kilometer detour, descending from the Mittelland Canal through the Rothensee boat lift into the Elbe, then sailing downstream on the river, before entering the Elbe-Havel Canal through Niegripp lock. Low water levels in the Elbe often prevented fully laden canal barges from making this crossing, requiring time-consuming off-loading of cargo. 5.39.217.77 I7 |* z s6 {/ S9 J5 B0 v
