Below what depth would a submarine have to submerge so that it would not be swayed by surface waves with a wavelength of 12 meters?
You can't base surface wave action ability to affect a submarine based on wavelength or even height alone. It depends entirely on the dynamics of the surface wave action as it's affected by the weather, the size/type of the submarine involved, and a slew of other ocean environment variables. A smaller boat will be affected by wave action at depth more easily than a larger one will.
Of course I'm sure there's some classroom Oceanographer/Professor/High School teacher with no real-world submarine experience somewhere who thinks it's possible to calculate it without minor variables like submerged displacement, propulsion type and speed (DE or Nuclear), depth of the boat in question, density of the water (e.g., in or out of the Gulf Stream, or in the Arctic, where salinity is less), temperature, wind speed, storm action, etc.
Intense storms can have a significant effect on submerged submarines at even 400' and below. I remember in particular a remnant of a hurricane as we were headed home to Charleston in 1983. We were at 400', taking 12-15 degree rolls due to the intense wave action on the surface. Mother Nature is not friendly when she's angry.
What else can I help you with?
A submarine descended to a level 230 meters below the surface of the ocean. Later it ascended 95 meters and then dove 120 meters. What was the new depth of the submarine?
The submarine will be at a depth of 255 meters. We work it by 230 - 95 + 120 = First, 230 - 95 = 135, and 135 + 120 = 255 meters
If the star Antares has a peak wavelength of 700NM then its surface temperature is about?
Using Wien's displacement law, we can estimate the surface temperature of Antares by converting the peak wavelength from nanometers to meters and then using the formula T = 2.898 x 10^6 / λ, where T is the temperature in Kelvin and λ is the wavelength in meters. Plugging in the values, we get T ≈ 4143 K.
How do you convert frequency from meters to megahertz?
"Meters" is not frequency. It's wavelength. If you know the wavelength in meters, divide 300 by it, and the result is the frequency in MHz. If you know the frequency in MHz, divide 300 by it, and the result is the wavelength in meters.
A submarine submerged at the depth of -35.25 meters dives an additional 8.5 meterswhat is the new depth of the submarine?
The new depth of the submarine is at -43.75 meters.
A frequency of 1240 kHz What is the wavelength in meters?
Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency) =(299,792,458) / (1,240,000) = 241.768 meters
How do you find wavelength in pm units?
To find wavelength in picometer (pm) units, you can use the formula: wavelength (pm) = wavelength (in meters) * 1e12. Simply multiply the wavelength value in meters by 1e12 to convert it to picometers.
What is the wavelength of 60 hertz?
60Hz has a wavelength of 5000 meters.
A submarine can launch a missile straight up to hit a plane and is at depth of 60 meters. A plane passes directly overhead at 340 meters. How far would the missile travel to hit the plane?
If the submarine was 60 meters below the surface and the plane was at 340 meters above sea level, the missile would travel 340 m + 60 m or 400 meters to hit the plane.
What is the wavelength of these waves of 6 meters?
The wavelength of the wave is 6 meters. Wavelength is typically defined as the distance between two successive peaks or troughs of a wave.
What instrument do submariners use for viewing from a submarine?
When the submarine is upto 20 meters from the surface they use a periscope which is simply 2 pieces of glass at 45 degrees to each other. similar to the periscope used to view from a trench by the army.
How do you label a wavelength?
you label a wavelength with amplitude, wavelength, through, and peak.
What is the speed of a wave with a wavelength of MM and a frequency of Hz?
The speed of a wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and its frequency. (If you want to have the speed in meters/second, convert the wavelength to meters first.)
