What class of submarine was Kursk?
The Kursk was an Oscar II class submarine, of the Russian Navy.
What is the history of the submarine Kursk?
The Kursk was a large, modern Russian nuclear submarine that was lost in the Barents Sea on August 12, 2000. She went down with all hands. Russia mourned the loss of the boat and her crew, and questions arose as to the reasons for a delay in response to reports she had gone down. As an aside, it is almost a certainty that submarine sailors around the world shared the grief at Kursk's sinking. A brief history of K-141, the Kursk, can be found by using the link provided to our friends at Wikipedia.
Why did the Russians fail to rescue the submarine kursk?
because theyre rescue vessels were in poor condition and the rescue subs were badly crewed
What were the condtions like on the kursk submarine when it sank?
tinned food no drinking water carbon dioxide scrubbers no washing facilities and rising water levels
How many propellers does a submarine have?
Most modern submarines have one screw (which is the proper term for a propeller). Some of the really big ones have a pair of them, like the Russian submarine Kursk, for example. But the bulk of the designs incorporate a single screw.
Will the submarine sink or float when its weight is equal to the upthrust acting on it?
The submarine will float when its weight is equal to the upthrust acting on it. This is because the upthrust force pushing the submarine upwards is equal to the weight of the water displaced by the submarine, resulting in a state of equilibrium where the submarine neither sinks nor floats.
When did the Russian submarine K-141 Kursk sink?
The Russian Navy's Oscar II-class (NATO reporting name) submarine K-141 Kursk sank as a result of an initial torpedo fuel detonation, and secondary torpedo warhead explosions (5-7), on August 12, 2000. Though 23 crew were known to have survived in the stern, they eventually perished along with the rest of the crew.
What happened to the kursk?
The K-141 Kursk was a Russian nuclear cruise missile submarine. It was lost with all of its men on board when it sank in the Barents Sea on August 12, 2000. That day, the Kursk sailed out to sea to fire dummy torpedoes. The missiles were fired, and an explosion occurred soon after. It is speculated that this was due to the failure and explosion of one of Kurskâ??s new/developmental torpedoes.
When a submarine is underwater does the buoyant force depend on the weight of the submarine?
Yes, the buoyant force acting on a submerged submarine depends on the volume of water displaced by the submarine, not directly on its weight. According to Archimedes' principle, the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the water displaced, which is determined by the submarine's submerged volume. However, for the submarine to be neutrally buoyant and maintain a certain depth, its weight must equal the buoyant force.
