Aria speed during scuba diving was 0.15 m/s.

Speed is the ratio of the distance travelled to the time taken. Speed is given by:

Speed = distance / time

Given that the distance travelled was 36 meters and the time was 4 minutes, hence:

Time = 4 minutes × 60 seconds per minute = 240 seconds

Speed = 36 m / 240 s

Speed = 0.15 m/s

Therefore Aria speed during scuba diving was 0.15 m/s.
