Originally, a submarine's electrical supply was stored in large banks of batteries. The batteries were charged by generators turned by diesel engines when the submarine was on the surface. If the destroyers and aircraft could keep the sub down long enough, it would 'die' because of running out of power.
Today's submarines generate electricity using steam from the nuclear power plants. This allows them to sever their ties with the surface for extended periods, which allows them to stay submerged for many months.
What else can I help you with?
Do people float in submarines?
No.
What runs on energy?
Nuclear power stations producing electricity, also some naval vessels and submarines
What do you call the people who drive submarines?
Submariners.
Why are submarines important?
submarines are important because people need to go under the sea and do what they got to do to save the world
What do you call people who drive war submarines?
Submariners.
Did the submarines in the Civil War have people in them?
Yes, they had crews.
How many people can a nuclear submarines hold?
170
What kinds of jobs did people have in World War 2 submarines?
In World War 2 submarines people had many jobs. Some listened to different radio signals, and others watched the sonar. There were also navigators, torpedo loaders and shooters, and preachers. In most submarines there were surgeons.
What runs on nuclear energy?
Nuclear energy is typically used to generate electricity through nuclear power plants. Ships and submarines also use nuclear energy to power their propulsion systems. Additionally, some research facilities and spacecraft are powered by nuclear energy sources.
What can Nuclear Power be used as?
Nuclear power can be used as a source of electricity generation in power plants. It can also be used for powering naval vessels, such as submarines and aircraft carriers, through nuclear propulsion systems. Additionally, nuclear power can be utilized in research and medical applications, such as cancer treatment and radiography.
What function of nuclear energy?
Nuclear energy is used to generate electricity through nuclear power plants, which produce heat by generating nuclear reactions. This heat is then used to produce steam, which drives turbines to generate electricity. Additionally, nuclear energy is used in some countries to power naval vessels, such as submarines and aircraft carriers.
Is submarine a sea transport?
As far as civilian submarines, technically no, as tourist submarines aren't actually transporting from point A to point B. For military submarines, absolutely. People using submarines as transport vessels are Special Forces (e.g., SEAL's), Navy research scientists (Polar Expeditions), and other individuals designated as required.
