> To be in motion, any object must need to overcome friction. For large container ships, between 2 and 10% of resistance encountered is caused by drag, which worsens a vessel's fuel economy as the additional friction requires more energy (in the form of fuel) to overcome.
Do they mean aerodynamic drag here? Otherwise, what’s the remaining 90 to 98% of resistance from, if not drag?
