basically like a normal machine gun its just smaller for better maneuverability.
A submachine gun works by cycling the bolt carrier rearwards to cock the weapon.
When the bolt carrier is released by depressing the trigger, it moves forward chambering a round, locking the bolt and then firing. The recoil from the round unlocks the bolt and pushes the bolt carrier rearwards again which strips the round from the chamber and ejects it from the weapon.
A sub-machine gun fires pistol cartridges. A machine gun fires rifle rounds.
Yes. A sub machine gun is a machine gun that fires pistol rounds and Uzis are 9mm.
The .45 Thompson sub-machine gun and M3 sub machine gun (grease gun) were used in WW2, Korea, and Vietnam War. A sub-machine gun is called a SUB machine gun because it uses "pistol" ammunition. The M3 sub-machinegun looked exactly like a grease gun; hence the name.

If you are referring to the present, today's most powerful sub-machine gun is the H&K UMP .45 cal sub-machine gun, or the Kriss Vector SMG. if you are referring to the past however then its undeniably the Tommy Gun. also a .45 cal sub-machine gun.
