Question
A piece of corroded steel plate was found in a submerged ocean vessel. It was
estimated that the original area of the plate was 13 in² and that approximately 3.8
kg had corroded away during the submersion. Assuming a corrosion penetration rate
of 200 mpy for this alloy in seawater, estimate the time of submersion in years. The
density of steel is 7.9 g/cm³. Calculating the submersion time from the corrosion
penetration rate (CPR).
