Well, a securely tied rope may still retrieve what's left of the box, if it comes to that. OTOH the depth corresponding to the length of rope paid out when all tension disappears in the rope can be taken to be the crush depth for the purposes of this experiment. Wouldn't it be fun if the box survived 100m? Ken |
