A three-brane embedded in a higher dimensional spacetime is considered. The main result of the paper reads as follows: ``black holes on the brane, black strings intersecting the brain, and gravitational waves propagating in the bulk induce an effective energy-momentum tensor on the brain that contains negative energy densities''. The author begins by discussing field equations in a five dimensional spacetime with a three-brain located at a four-dimensional subspace of the spacetime. These equations were derived by \textit{T. Shiromizu}, \textit{K. Maeda} and \textit{M. Sasaki} [Phys. Rev. D (3) 62, 024012 (2000)] and some of their solutions were found and examined by \textit{R. Maartens} [Phys. Rev. D (3) 62, 084023 (2000)] and by \textit{J. Garriga} and \textit{T. Tanaka} [Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 2778 (2000)]. The negative energy densities in general do not satisfy a quantum inequality. In connection with this a possibility of observational problems for the ``brane world'' scenarios is mentioned.
