What is a dive and what is it used for?

A dive is a head first jump into the water with arms out ( in streamline position) and legs straight out behind you so you are in a perfect line. Flips and acrobatical jumps are also dives. But the 1st definition is for swimming. Diving is used to extend or explode of a diving block. Dives are also used in competitio. Thank you. :)

What are some games to play in a pool?

This is my favorite pool game: Jump Spin or Dive- Jump in off the side of a pool or off a diving board and some one calls out either jump spin or dive and the person on the board does the dive they call out! You can change the jumps or dives to something else like, pencil, swan dive or spin or whatever you want. The caller calls the jump right after the jumper jumps off the board! I hope you really enjoy this game as much as I do!

No. It will accelerate the diver downward only.


What type of energy conversions occur as the board springs back and propels the diver up into the air?

The board stores energy as the diver jumps onto it, then returns the energy, which the diver may then use in addition to what he adds with his next jump. This will continue until he jumps away from the board, or until it breaks from attempting to store too much energy.

While he's in the air, the reaction force is air resistance and when he's in the water the reaction force is upthrust. Hope this helps.
