yes

It tremendously reduced the travel time between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.

69 million

To reach the Pacific Ocean from the Atlantic Ocean and vice versa, saves a bunch of time, resources, human fatigue etc.

It was used to make an easier way for ships between the pacific and Atlantic ocean. so that they could deliver they're goods to other places... it was faster and only took two weeks to get across the pacific and Atlantic ocean... before the panama canal it took 1-2 months to cross it..

The Newry Canal is in Northern Ireland.

One of the most important waterways in the world, the Suez Canal runs north to south across the Isthmus of Suez in northeastern Egypt. This image of the canal covers an area 36 kilometers (22 miles) wide and 60 kilometers (47 miles) long in three bands of the reflected visible and infrared wavelength region. It shows the northern part of the canal, with the Mediterranean Sea just visible in the upper right corner. The Suez Canal connects the Mediterranean Sea with the Gulf of Suez, an arm of the Red Sea. The artificial canal provides an important shortcut for ships operating between both European and American ports and ports located in southern Asia, eastern Africa, and Oceania. With a length of about 195 kilometers (121 miles) and a minimum channel width of 60 meters (197 feet), the Suez Canal is able to accommodate ships as large as 150,000 tons fully loaded. Because no locks interrupt traffic on this sea level waterway, the transit time only averages about 15 hours.

President Jimmy Carter, although the USA really created the nation of Panama to get the canal in the first place, so President Jimmy Carter was actually doing the right thing when he gave Panama the right to control something that was built on their land in the first place. Panama still allows the USA to have a say in how the canal is run.

The challenge of building the Panama Canal was tremendous. Perhaps the major problem facing the builders were the disease carrying mosquitos.

The Suez Canal (Arabic: قناة السويس, transliteration: Qanā al-Suways), is a large artificial canal in Egypt, west of the Sinai Peninsula. It is 163 km (101 miles) long and 300 m (984 ft) wide at its narrowest point, and runs between Port Said (Būr Sa'īd) on the Mediterranean Sea, and Suez (al-Suways) on the Red Sea. The canal allows two-way water transportation, most importantly between Europe and Asia without circumnavigation of Africa. Before its opening in 1869, goods were sometimes offloaded from ships and carried over land between the Mediterranean and the Red Sea. The canal comprises seven parts, north and south of the Great Bitter Lake, linking the Mediterranean Sea to the Gulf of Suez on the Red Sea.

Although the Panama Canal was supposed to be a great benefit to all of society, including Panamanians, it came to be of only economic benefit to the United States. Panamanian businesses weren't permitted to take advantage of the economic opportunity by selling products or gaining employment in the Canal zone. The canal was of great benefit on the transportation between the west and east coasts of the United States.

A lock raises and lowers water levels.

The French started first, but had to stop when most workers died of Malaria. Then the US started up and succeeded. The French also made the fundamental mistake of trying to build a sea-level canal, like their successful Suez Canal. Only the Suez goes across a low-lying desert plain, not a range of mountains.

The Panama Canal is only 50 miles long. Passage runs through two lakes, one natural and the other artificial. There are three sets of locks that ships transit through.
