Cheyenne Rahman OCE1001 1/22/24 Option 2: Question 1 (1.1): How is the Atlantic Ocean just covering 25% of the world’s water? Seems like the percentage could’ve been higher Question 2 (1.1): In the video “How Deep is the Ocean”, how are small devices like Kaiko able to reach down over 35,000 feet into the ocean but anything large like a sub loses its strength around 2,400 feet or more down into the ocean? Even with the people who explored down in 1960, their submarine didn’t break or anything despite going to the closest sea floor to the bottom of earth. Question 3 (1.1): Is there possibly more depths in different oceans besides the furthest one being more than 35,000 feet down? Question 4 (1.4): With echosounders, how come it only worked when the device was under the ship underwater when they can reel the device on the top surface of water, then send the radio waves to detect the depth? Question 5 (1.4): If the technique from the early 1900s didn’t work but the device “Massey’s sounding machine” in the 1800s worked with some additional modifications, how come they didn’t use that before instead of using long lines of metal to figure out the sea depth? Question 6 (1.4): How did echosounders work with the multibeam underwater considering that usually energy like this travels through light and not in a dark place and there’s more restrictions in movement (so like light travels in air but how does it do the same for water)? Question 7 (2.1): How does 60 minutes equal to a nautical mile, I thought it’s usually a little less than 60 minutes for a mile? Question 8 (2.1): Why is Latitude considered more of depth tool than longitude (I know both of them are but more scientists use latitude)
Question 9 (2.1): What's the mathematical difference between latitude and longitude? Question 10 (2.1): Is there a different longitude calculation when finding out lengths but it’s in different time zones?
