Submarines dive by opening vents that allow air to escape from ballast tanks and water to flow

Question:

Submarines dive by opening vents that allow air to escape from ballast tanks and water to flow in and fill them. In addition, diving planes located at the bow are angled downward to help push the boat below the surface. Calculate the diving force produced by a 20-ft2 hydroplane having a lift coefficient of 0.11 as the boat cruises at 15 knots (1 knot = 1.152 mph).
