Best Answer

The submarine has scrubbers. They remove carbon dioxide from the air and break it down to release the oxygen back into the air. There are also a few tanks to supplement the oxygen content if necessary.

How does a submarine float?

It floats and sink by changing its buoyancy. The primary method of controling buoyancy is the ballast tanks. The air is let out of them and is displaced by water. This gives the submarine negative buoyancy, which will get the submarine to submerge. By blowing or pumping air into those ballast tanks, the submarine becomes buoyant and rises to the surface.

Why do submarines submerge?

To control its buoyancy, the submarine has ballast tanksand auxiliary, or trim tanks, that can be alternately filled with water or air. When you fill it with water, it sinks, When you first let the water out then you let the air in (from compressed air in the submarine) it floats.

How do fluids help ballast chambers on a submarine?

A submarine actually controls its weight by allowing water to enter or exit hollow chambers in its hull. These chambers are called ballast tanks. Ballast is anything carried in a ship to give stability. When water is allowed to flood into a submarine's ballast tanks, the weight of the submarine increases. When this increased weight exceeds the submarine's buoyancy, the submarine will sink. To allow the submarine to rise, air is pumped into the ballast tanks. The air forces out the water, reducing the weight of the submarine. The submarine then becomes lighter, buoyancy increases, and it floats to the surface. A submarine can also be made to "float" underwater at any depth by adjusting the amount of water weight in its ballast tanks.
