A nuclear-powered submarine is different from a conventional submarine because it is powered by a nuclear reactor instead of diesel engines or batteries. This allows it to stay submerged for longer periods of time and travel at faster speeds. Additionally, nuclear-powered submarines do not need to surface as frequently for refueling, giving them greater endurance and operational range.
A submarine is a ship that can travel underwater.
A submarine is a kind of boat. But regular boats only use the surface of the water while subs also can dive and travel below the surface.
As of 2014, a submarine can travel between 49 and 52 miles per hour. The exact speed depends on the make of the sub and whether it is traveling on the surface or under water.
U. S. submarines in World War II had a top surface speed of around 20-knots. Submerged, their top speed was around 9-knots, although at that speed they would exhaust their batteries after one hour and have to surface to recharge them.
The fastest known nuclear submarine to date was the Russian ALFA class (NATO reporting name) submarine. Its design featured a lead-bismuth cooled reactor, enabling the reactor to be much smaller and powerful, making the boat design more streamlined and capable of reaching higher speeds. Its top sustained submerged speed was 41-42 knots, with speed burst capabilities of between 43 and 45 knots. I could reach top speed within a minute. Most boats can only maintain between 12-15 knots on the surface - this is because modern submarine designs are to allow them to travel much faster underwater than on the surface. The average for most boats is between 25 - 35 knots submerged, depending on class and screw configuration. Modern submarines are designed to go much faster underwater than on the surface - typically, top speed on the surface is around 17 knots for most boats.
A submarine is a vessel that can travel both on the surface and under the water.
Submarines have ballast tanks inside them that can be filled with water to make them sink.
A nuclear submarine is only limited by food it can travel as long as there foods
A submarine best fits the description.
No. Surface waves are slower than both P and S-waves.
water travel is traveling on/in a boat or a submarine.
