Answer: The average change in elevation is 27 feet per second.

Explanation:

A submarine dives = 378 feet

Time taken in the total diving = 14 seconds.

So, according to the question, the average change in the elevation can be calculated by

⇒ Feet per second = feet/ second

⇒ the average change = 378/14

⇒ elevation = 27 feet per second.

Change in elevation is basically the distance covered in one second.
