Summery of the Cartesian diver
This blog is about the Cartesian diver; it includes it's history, how it works, links, and question. The Cartesian diver is a tank full of air so it can float in water. So? What's so special about that? Well, the tank would be able to put the air under pressure so water can get in, therefor making the tank sink. That is very important for submarines because than they could sink and float on command. Also the nautilus uses the same technology, they use there shells like the tanks I just mentioned. How ever, if the tank leaks or breaks it won't work. That is very important for submarines because than they could sink and float on command without using to much energy (and frustration). The Cartesian diver was a great discovery.
