The U.S. defended ships against U-boat attacks during World War II primarily through the implementation of convoy systems, where merchant vessels traveled in groups escorted by naval warships. They also employed technological advancements like sonar and depth charges to detect and destroy submarines. Additionally, the U.S. used air cover from aircraft, which helped to spot U-boats and provide protection for merchant vessels. These combined efforts significantly reduced the effectiveness of U-boat attacks.

How does an boat accelerate?
A boat accelerates by applying a force in the opposite direction to the desired motion, generating a reaction force that propels the boat forward. This force is typically created by the boat's engine or sail, pushing against the water and creating a forward thrust that moves the boat. The acceleration of the boat depends on the power of the propulsion system and the resistance of the water against the hull of the boat.
