What is the record score in platform diving?

As of my last update in October 2023, there is no universally recognized "record score" in platform diving because scores can vary based on different competitions and diving formats. However, in major events like the Olympics and World Championships, divers are judged on difficulty and execution, with perfect scores being 10s awarded by judges. High-scoring dives can exceed 100 points when combining difficulty and execution scores. For the most current records, it's best to refer to official diving organizations or recent competition results.

Do Cells diving indefinitely?

Cells do not divide indefinitely; they have a limit to the number of times they can divide, known as the Hayflick limit. This limit is primarily due to the shortening of telomeres, which protect chromosome ends during replication. Once telomeres become too short, cells enter a state called senescence or undergo programmed cell death (apoptosis). However, certain cells, like cancer cells, can bypass these limits and divide uncontrollably.

Why does your pool shock you There is a small current when you touch wet concrete and pool water at the same time. Could this be static electricity Please help?

In a wet environment, static should not be an issue. The frist thing I would do is to shut off the power to the filter pump and check to see if the shock is gone. If you still have a current, I would check to see if there are any power wires running under your concrete. Is this an indoor pool or out doorpool. Ether way, I would look at any power sources such as outlets that may be wet in or around where they are mounted. Please leave message on my message board for discussion if you do not find the problem. RIGHT NOW - !!!!!!!!! GO OUT AND TURN OFF THE CIRCUIT BREAKERS TO THE POOL - INCLUDING THE POOL LIGHT. KEEP EVERYONE, INCLUDING PETS, AWAY FROM THE POOL UNTIL THIS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS PROBLEM HAS BEEN CORRECTED. YOU NEED TO CALL A QUALIFIED POOL TECH OR A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN WHO KNOWS POOL CIRCUITS TO FIND AND CORRECT THE MALFUNCTION. THE NEXT STEP THE REPAIR TECH NEEDS TO DO IS TO INSTALL A GFCI ON THE POOL LIGHT if it has one. THE WHOLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE TESTED AS THERE MAY BE MORE THAN ON FAULT LOCATION. Contact Pentair Pool Prod. 800-831-7133. One of their companies invented a system to trace the most minute of stray current in and around a swimming pool. Do not put off the above imprortant actions as they may save your life. I say this because not all electricians know the codes for swimming pools.

How can a 14 year old diver be in the Olympics?

In diving, unlike gymnastics, a competior can be 14. The answer is simple, because they are China. Known of doing such things, http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/547107/china_knock_off_and_piracy_capitol.html The malicious rumour has been cleaned up, in Olympics, you have to be over 16 years old to participate in any of the events. So there is no way a diver can be 14 years old in Olympic Diving.

What is the difference between regular diving and synchronized diving?

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.
