Question:
10. The circular inset in Figure 19.11 shows how positive sodium (Na+) ions in seawater are accelerated out the rear of the submarine to provide a propulsive force.
But what about the negative chlorine (Cl−) ions?
Because they have the opposite charge, aren’t they accelerated forward, resulting in a net force of zero on the submarine? Explain.
