Submarines must be able to float to load and offload crew and cargo and to have repairs and maintenance. They are designed to submerge either for underwater exploration or to pass undetected by ships at the surface and planes and satellites above.

How do submarines float and sink in water?

a submarine has a water tank. when the tank is filled then submarine sink in the water. and when the tank is empty then submarine float in water. use the formula density= mass / volume as mass increases(when the tank is full of water), the density of the submarine increases and it submerge into the water and vice versa.


When water fills a submarine's flotation tanks the overall density of the submarine will...?

The density will rise and submerge the submarine.


What is a good sentence using submerge in it?

Submerge those dishes in the soapy water, please. I was watching the submarine slowly submerge.


What is the purpose of the submarine to submerge into the water?

In war a submarine can hide under the water and attack without being seen.

How does a submarine float?

It floats and sink by changing its buoyancy. The primary method of controling buoyancy is the ballast tanks. The air is let out of them and is displaced by water. This gives the submarine negative buoyancy, which will get the submarine to submerge. By blowing or pumping air into those ballast tanks, the submarine becomes buoyant and rises to the surface.

submerge is a verb. example: the submarine is about to submerge


Why does a submarine can sink and float in water?

A submarine can sink and float in water because it has ballast tanks that can be filled with water to make it sink and with air to make it float. By adjusting the amount of water and air in the ballast tanks, the submarine can control its buoyancy and stay submerged at a desired depth or rise back to the surface.


Why can a submarine sink and float in sea water?

A submarine has "ballast tanks" which can be filled with water to make the vessel heavier (total density greater) than water and dive to required depth. These ballast tanks can also be filled with air (compressed air is kept on board for this) to make the vessel lighter and rise to the surface


How submarine caused to submerge without use propulsion propeller and fins?

A submarine can submerge by filling ballast and trimmer tanks with sea water. The additional weight will take the submarine down. To resurface, the submarine will blow the sea water out of the tanks using compressed air. The air in the tanks make the submarine buoyant, so it rises and floats on the surface. Though a stationary submarine can submerge in this way, it usually submerges going forward and using diving plane (fins) to steepen the dive, so getting under the surface faster.
