Question

How long would it take to travel around the world in a submarine going top speed?

Answer 1

Since the military is likely to have the fastest subs and they are not willing to share the top speeds this answer is a military secret.  If you know the speed of any non military sub every time they go around the world the speed will vary each time.  Because of weather top side and resulting current speeds.

Answer 2

80 days

Answer 3

30 mph divided into 24000

is about 33 1/3 days

Whats wrong with our eductaion system when someone must ask a question like this ???

Answer 4

It would depend on the sub (how fast it is).

If the sub had a top speed of 10 MPH, then it would take a little over 3 1/2 months.

Answer 5

Capable of well over 30 mph...possibly faster than 40 but classified. I'm guessing about a month or less.

Answer 6

Let me know if you find the answer
