Well, isn't that just a happy little sentence! The compound word in there is "diving board." It's like a little hidden treasure waiting to be discovered in the middle of a beautiful sentence. Just like finding a happy little tree in a serene forest scene.
Springboard and platform.
The man diving from the 10 meter board would have more potential energy because his starting height is higher, resulting in greater gravitational potential energy. Potential energy is directly proportional to height, so the higher the diving board, the greater the potential energy.
There are two diving boards used at the Olympics. One is the 3 Metre springboard; the other the 10 Metre platform.
Two divers are diving in clear ocean water at a depth of 175 m One diver shows a white marker board to the other with writing on it. Thee marker board appear to be blue.
Whoa, IT IS NOT A GOOD IDEA TO PAINT YOUR OLD DIVING BOARD !! Painting the board will hide any defects or damaged areas of the board. Any signs of cracking, peeling, spalding, chipping or anything else that may indicate that the board is about to fail are all hidden with paint. The last thing you may want is for the board to split in two or splinter when someone is in the midst of using it. This may cause a person or child to have severe harm done to them or even a fatality. For peace of mind have the old board replaced or removed entirely. A diving board is nothing but a liability. You may even be avoiding a potential law suit with it's removal. k
The dimensions of an Olympic diving pool are usually 60 feet in length and 75 feet, 11 inches in width. It should be equipped with two 1-meter springboards, two 3-m springboards and a diving platform with three levels: 5m, 7.5m and 10m.
Synchronized diving began in the 1930's at aquacades and diving shows. In 2000, synchronized diving was adopted as an Olympic sport. Two divers perform identical dives simultaneously.
The difference between "regular" diving and synchronized diving is the scoring and the athletes. In "regular" diving one diver goes at a time and that one diver is scored based on that one dive. In synchronized diving, TWO people do the SAME DIVE at the SAME TIME to try and be as accurate and identical to each other as possible. The two athletes are then given ONE score for both dives based on their precision and timing.
Cave diving is a particularly risky type of diving using specialized SCUBA equipment to explore underwater caves.
Diving debuted in the Modern Olympics at the 1904 Games in St. Louis. Diving was not competed at the first two Games, the 1896 Games in Athens and the 1900 Games in Paris.
