Best Answer

Rugby players may dive during matches to try to draw a penalty or to exaggerate the impact of a tackle in order to influence the referee's decision. This behavior is sometimes seen as unsportsmanlike and can lead to penalties or disciplinary action.

Is football better than rugby?

everyone have different awnsers Ill say rugby league or union is MUCH better than football (soccer). Soccer for me, is a game where it's basically all acting, if they want to dive everywhere on the field, go join a marital art or tap-dancing or something. Rugby players share blood,sweat and tears during every game. Rugby League players often play on the field with broken bones or jaws. Soccer, if they see a drop of blood, they start dancing off the field, bunch of girls.

What 2 primary factors influence how much nitrogen you absorb during a dive?

The depth of the dive and the duration of time spent at that depth are the two primary factors that influence how much nitrogen you absorb during a dive. Nitrogen absorption increases with depth due to higher pressure, and longer dive times allow for more nitrogen to be taken up by body tissues.


What is the diver gravitational potential energy just before the dive?

The diver's gravitational potential energy just before the dive is at its maximum, as the diver is at the highest point in the dive and has the most gravitational potential energy. This potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy as the diver falls during the dive.


How should you warn other players of an approaching ball?

Yell "Fore!" as loud as you can. If you hear it yourself, my suggestion is to dive on the ground with your head covered up.
