No, a swimmer standing on a diving board is an example of potential energy, as the swimmer has the potential to move and convert that stored energy into kinetic energy once they dive into the water.

Is a person diving into water an example of potential energy?

Its a bad example, but some potential energy is involved. You convert chemical energy from the fuel to kinetic energy and heat energy. The kinetic energy drives you into the water. There the car sinks because of the height difference and gravity. This is a form of potential energy. A better example would be a person driving up and down a mountain. When driving up a mountain you store kinetic energy into potential energy. On the way down you regain the potential energy you stored, which results in a higher kinetic energy when driving down.

Does a diver at the top of a diving board have kinetic energy?

Yes, the diver at the top of the diving board has potential energy due to their position above the ground. Once the diver jumps, this potential energy is converted to kinetic energy as they accelerate towards the water.


Is underwater a compound word?

Diving does not consist of two separate words together, so it is not a compound word.
