A piece of corroded steel plate was found in a submerged ocean vessel. It was estimated that the original area of the plate was 6 in. 2 and that approximately \( 3.4 \mathrm{~kg} \) had corroded away during the submersion. Assuming a corrosion penetration rate of \( 200 \mathrm{mpy} \) for this alloy in seawater, estimate the time of submersion in years. The density of steel is \( 7.9 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3} \). \[ \mathrm{yr} \] eTextbook and Media Attempts: 0 of 3 used Using multiple attempts will impact your score. \( 10 \% \) score reduction after attempt 1
