Question

a submarine descends 480 ft and 24 seconds the submarines elevation changes at a constant rate what is the elevation change of the submarine after 8 Seconds​

Answer 1

Answer:

The submarine would be 900 below the ocean surface after 12 minutes assuming it started its descent at the surface of the ocean.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for distance traveled (in this case the distance a submarine descends) over a period of time is:

d

=

r

⋅

t

where

d

is the distance traveled (or descended),

r

is the rate of travel and

t

is the time.

In this problem we are told the rate,

r

is 75 feet per minute. And, we are told the time,

t

, to calculate for which is 12 minutes.
