SSC MTS EXAM

Detailed explanation-1: -A: Because the diver is high above the water, she has the potential to fall toward Earth because of gravity. This gives her potential energy.

Detailed explanation-2: -When you dive off diving board, you first press it downwards, causing it to store potential energy in it. When it has maximum amount of potential energy stored in it, the diving board converts potential energy into kinetic energy and pushes it up in the air.

Detailed explanation-3: -When you then dive into the water, your potential energy is converted to kinetic energy as you fall, and when you hit the surface, some of that energy is transferred to the water, causing it to splash into the air.
