Question

you are waiting in line to use the ding board at your local pool. while watching people dive into the pool from the board, you realize that using a diving board to spring into the air before a dive is an example of newton’s third law of motion. explain how a diving board illustrates newton’s third law of motion.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

While we jump on the diving board then the force is applied by us in the downward direction on the diving board

due to this action force applied by us the diving board goes downwards while due to the reaction force of that diving board we will experience a force in opposite direction

that reaction force will be equal in the magnitude of the force applied by us on the diving board and it is opposite in the direction

so here we will move upwards and lift off the diving board

so this is a great example of newton's III law as per this law every action has equal and opposite reaction force

Answer 2

The diving board is helping the diver jump and helping increase the force of the diver's jump, they work together to help the jumper have a bigger jump.
