The process of a submarine to move from the surface of the ocean to a position underneath the surface is called a dive. This is accomplished by allowing water to fill the tanks of the submarine, the heavy water pressure now inside the vessel now will force it to sink below the surface, thus a "dive".

How many feet can a submarine dive?
A few submarines have gone to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, 6 miles down, but, most can only dive to a few hundred feet. Any deeper and the pressure would crush their hulls. Diving to a few hundred feet is good enough for most military and civilian submarines. Also, how deep certain military submarines can dive is top secret information and is known only to a few people in the navy.
How far can submarines dive?
U.S. Submarines can dive 800-plus feet. (Official depth; however, can dive deeper. The US Navy itself acknowledges that most of it's attack submarines can operate down to at least 985 feet, and many to over 1400 feet.
How far can submarines dive underwater?
Straight to the bottom of the ocean.
What does a blue and white alpha flag mean?
A dive boat that is restricted in its ability to maneuver.
How can submarines float and sink?
Submarines change their depth by use of ballast tanks. To dive, they open their tanks so that they become filled with water. They also angle their dive planes. To surface, they pump the water out of their tanks and fill them with pressurised air.
How do submarines stay afloat?
Submarines stay afloat by using a combination of buoyancy and ballast control. When they want to surface, they use compressed air to force water out of ballast tanks, making the submarine lighter and allowing it to float. To dive, submarines take in water into these tanks, increasing their weight and causing them to sink. By adjusting the amount of water in the ballast tanks, submarines can maintain their desired depth in the water.
After a dive you are in a pressure group K what will your new pressure group be after a 34 minute dive?
Pressure group F.
Why do people that want to go deep underwater need a submarine or dive bell?
People need a submarine or dive bell to protect themselves from the immense pressure experienced at deep underwater levels. Submarines and dive bells are designed to withstand high pressures and provide a controlled environment for divers to safely explore these depths without risking injury or death.
How does a submarine dive under water from the surface?
Submarines dive by opening vent valves that allow sea water to push air out of their ballast tanks.
To control my buoyancy as I ascend after a dive I should?
Gradually but continuously exhale. This is not only to control buoyancy, but to prevent damaging your lungs as the air in your lungs expands (due to external pressure decreasing, internal pressure increases)
What weapons did Japan bring to Pearl Harbor?
Kate Torpedo Airplanes, Val Dive Bombers, Zero Fighter Planes, Mini-Submarines launched from Mother Submarines.
What is use of pressure vessel in submarine?
Pressure vessels in submarines are crucial for maintaining a stable internal environment despite the high external pressures of deep water. They house equipment and living quarters, ensuring crew safety and comfort by preventing water ingress. Additionally, these vessels are designed to withstand significant pressure differentials, allowing submarines to dive and operate at great depths without structural failure. Their integrity is vital for the overall performance and survivability of the submarine.
