adapted from Submarines
from The Story of Great Inventions
by Elmer Ellsworth Burns

Successful navigation beneath the surface of the water, though not carried to the extent imagined by Jules Verne, was a reality at the beginning of the twentieth century. Instead of twenty thousand leagues under the sea, less than a hundred leagues had been accomplished, but no one can foretell what the future may have in store.
The submarine is primarily utilized in wars. The weapon used by the submarine is the torpedo. The torpedo is itself a small submarine able to propel itself, and if started in the water toward a certain object, to go under water straight to the mark. It carries a heavy charge, either of guncotton or dynamite, which explodes when the torpedo strikes a solid object, such as a battle-ship.
It would be very difficult for one submarine to fight another submarine, for the submarine when completely submerged is blind. It could not see in the water to find its enemy. The torpedo-boat-destroyer is able to destroy a submarine by torpedoes, shells full of high explosives, or quick-firing guns. Advantage must be taken of the moment when the submarine comes to the surface to get a view of her enemy.
One of the great enemies of the submarine will probably be the air-ship, for while the submarine when under water cannot be seen from a ship on the surface, it can, under favorable conditions, be seen from a certain height in the air.
The rising and sinking of the submarine depend on the principle of Archimedes. The upward push of the water is just equal to the weight of the water displaced. If the water displaced weighs more than the boat, then the upward push of the water is greater than the weight of the boat and the boat rises. However, the boat can be made to dive when its weight is just a little less than the weight of the water displaced. This is done by means of horizontal rudders which may be inclined so as to cause the boat to glide downward as its propeller drives it forward.
There is one submarine built for peaceful pursuits. It is the Argonaut, invented by Simon Lake. This remarkable boat crawls along the bottom of the sea, but not at an immense depth. It is equipped with divers' appliances, and is used in saving wreckage. Divers can go out through the bottom of the boat, walk about on the sea bottom, and when through with their work re-enter the boat; all the while boat and men are, perhaps, a hundred feet below the surface. The divers' compartment, from which the divers go out into the water, is separated by an air-tight partition from the rest of the boat. Compressed air is forced into this compartment until the pressure of the air equals the pressure of the water outside. Then the door in the bottom is opened, and the air keeps the water out. The men in their diving-suits can then go out and in as they please.
For every boat, there is a depth beyond which it must not go. The penalty for going beyond this depth is a battered vessel, for the pressure increases with the depth. Every time the depth is increased thirty-two feet, the pressure is increased fifteen pounds on every square inch. Beyond a certain depth, the vessel cannot resist the pressure. Submarines have been made strong enough to withstand the pressure at a depth of five thousand feet, or nearly a mile. Most submarines, however, cannot go deeper than a hundred and fifty feet.
Air is supplied to the occupants of the boat either from reservoirs containing compressed air or oxygen, or by means of chemicals which absorb the carbon dioxide produced in breathing and restore the needed quantity of oxygen to the air.

What the submarine is primarily utilized in wars?

Torpedoes and sometimes antiship missiles are carried by attack submarines. Although strategic submarines may have a variety of armaments, submarine-launched ballistic missiles (SLBMs), like the American and British Trident, are their main arsenal.

The submarine can perform ground strike operations at the start of combat in order to destroy enemy command and control infrastructure as well as other sea and air control capabilities.

Therefore, Authorize and Used have a similar denotation to the word utilized as it is used in the passage.

2. Lolo Delfin's ancestral house is burning. When the wind blows hard, fire
increases rapidly. Why?
O A. presence of fire extinguisher
O B. the use of water to stop the fire
O C. lack of oxygen
O D. presence of oxygen​

Answers

Answer:

D. Presence of oxygen​

Explanation:

If the amount of oxygen increases, the intensity of the fire will increase as well because oxygen supports the chemical processes that occur during the fire. Wind increases the supply of oxygen, which is why Lolo Delfin's ancestral home will burn down faster in the presence of wind.

The presence of a fire extinguisher and the use of water would stop the fire, which is why options A and B are incorrect.

Answers

The answer is “not discriminating.”

Here is an excerpt from the poem to explain how I arrived at that answer.

“She had
A heart—how shall I say?— too soon made glad,
Too easily impressed; she liked whate’er
She looked on, and her looks went everywhere.”

This excerpt is basically saying that the Duchess would look at everyone with happiness, and was very easy to please. This means that she did not discriminate against certain people. She “liked whatever she looked on.”
