I'm not sure if a figure or some choices go along with this, but the closer to the sea floor the diver is, the lower the potential energy

Explanation:
that's just what I learned in school
Answer:
An atmosphere is the layers of gases surrounding a planet or other celestial body. Earth's atmosphere is composed of about 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and one percent other gases
Answer:
a) v = 6.43 m/s
b) v = 15.8 m/s
Explanation:
Speed of car = 56 km/h
56 km/h = 14.4 m/s
Angle rain makes on the glass to the vertical = 66°
Thus knowing that the opposite side of the angle is the distance moved by the car, and the adjacent side is the distance traveled by the rain in the same time
both of which are directly proportional to their velocities
Then
tan(66°) = 14.44m/s ÷ x
or x = 14.44/tan(66°)
Which is the vertical raindrop velocity of the relative to earth
v = 6.43 m/s vertically towards earth
For v relative to the car is we have vector sum of both velocities
v = √(14.44^2 + 6.43^2) = 15.8 m/s which is the velocity relative to car
= 15.8 m/s
Probably for kind of the same reason that speed is expressed as a
relationship between two units. You know, like miles per hour .
I guess the only reason is because no single unit has been invented
to describe density.
The rate of doing work or using energy would always be expressed
as a relationship between two units ... we would say that the rate of
work is "(so many) joules per second". But the "watt" was invented,
so we can say "(so many) watts" instead.
So I guess you're right. Density could be simpler to describe
if we only had a unit for it. Then we wouldn't have to say "(so many)
grams per cubic centimeter". We would just say "(so many) (new unit)".
Let's try it out:
"Uhhh, pardon me Professor . . . I've been working late in the lab,
and I believe I've identified a new substance, hitherto unknown to
the scientific community, and totally unexpected. In its pure form,
the substance appears to be pink, it smells like butterscotch, and
its density is approximately 27.4 Brianas. I think it's time we published
these findings ... with your name as lead investigator, of course."
I like it !
