Because thin metals will crush under extreme depth
Depth charges.
It's about 2.5 miles below the surface of the North Atlantic. That depth is far beyond where a diver can go, but specialized deep-sea submarines can visit the wreck site.
The weapon described is a depth charge.
Airplanes dropped depth charges and specialised torpedoes
Most pleasure submarines are either personal watercraft with limited diving capability, or tourist submarines with limited depth capability.
Define "submarine" and "bottom of the sea".Submarines are designed for a particular pressure/depth. The designers also incorporate a margin of error, so the actual depth at which the submarine would be crushed by external pressure ("crush depth") is generally marginally greater than its "design depth". Submarines normally operate at a fraction of their design depth (this is called "test depth") under normal peacetime conditions. Different navies use different fractions as the test depth; the German navy specifies a test depth of half the design depth, while the US navy uses 2/3 of design depth.If the sea floor depth at a particular point is less than the sub's test depth, then they can approach it (though, for various reasons, actually touching it is nearly always a bad idea).The deepest known point in the ocean is the Challenger Deep in the Marianas Trench, at about 10,916 meters. Two human-manned vessels (one solo craft and one with two occupants) have gotten within a few meters of the bottom there, but both of them were technically "submersibles" rather than "submarines"; they had limited mobility and basically existed to go primarily straight down (and, hopefully, back up) rather than cruise for long distances horizontally. Actual submarines generally have much lower design depths. For example Virginia-class US nuclear attack submarines have a test depth of only about 240 meters (putting their design depth at about 360 meters).
Depth charges are typically set to detonate at a specific depth, depending on the target being pursued. Depths can vary, but they are often set between 50 to 150 meters below the water's surface. This depth is chosen to optimize the effectiveness of the explosion against submarines or underwater targets.
Yes sonar can be used at periscope depth. Surface ships also have sonar arrays on them. They are usually used to detect submarines.
Naval submarines do not dive deep enough to go near underwater mountains. This is contrary to what you may have seen in the movies. They use sounding charts to determine the depth of the water in which they are navigating. They avoid such underwater objects. Research submarines use cameras and sonar, as well as charts, to guide them.
in the water
Pink dolphins are like submarines because they never go in the water, dolphins and submarines alike are have waterphobia and never go in the water. Pink dolphines also are lesbians like submarines
