The Cartesian Diver is actually a scientific experiment. It helps divers determine what amount of air is needed for descent and ascent so that neither is done too quickly which can cause death.

Is a cartesian plane the same as a cartesian coordinate?
The cartesian coordinates are plotted on the cartesian plane
What does coordinate plane mean in math?
It is also known as the Cartesian plane where shapes and lines are plotted on it.
What is x-coordinate in math?
The x-coordinate is the horizontal part of what is known as the cartesian plane, which is the 2D representation of dimensioning. This is a cartesian plane: /\ <------------- that's an arrow, which means it extends indefinitely. | | | <-----------|----------> X ( this is the x coordinate, the horizontal part of the cartesian plane) | | | V Y (This is the y coordinate, the vertical part) jhj
Parts of cartesian plane?
what are the parts of the Cartesian plane ?
What is the greatest number of intercepts a line have?
A straight line in Cartesian space will have at most two.
Why are Cartesian Diver called Cartesian divers?
cause of him
How does the density of the air change in the Cartesian Diver experiment?
As the "diver" descends, air density inside the diver's capsule increases as it is compressed.
Why do free-divers sink at depth?
The cartesian diver sinks because the diver wants to get to a place of low pressure
A Cartesian diver made from a plastic bottle filled with water and an inverted test tube partially filled with water What causes the diver to sink as the bottle is squeezed?
"The volume of air in the diver decreases."
How does pascal principle help explain the behavior of the cartesian diver?
because school is a good place to be for tony
Would a candle tied to a paperclip work as a Cartesian diver?
The answer is no, because a Cartesian diver requires an air pocket that can be compressed. By compressing this air pocket the air molecules get closer together and change the density of the vessel that they are in. This causes it to sink. candles do not have air pockets, so there would be nothing to compress.
What are the horizontal axis on a Cartesian plane known as?
The Cartesian plane has only 1 horizontal axis and it is known as the x-axis.
The picture shows a Cartesian diver made from a plastic bottle filled with water and an inverted test tube partially filled with water. What causes the diver to sink as the bottle is squeezed?
The volume of air in the driver decrease.
Who is the french mathematician that invented Cartesian coordinate plane?
Rene Descartes, the surname means ( some charts or some maps) Descartes theorized than any equation can be expressed in graphical form, form follows family names! Descartes and the Cartesian idea became associated with the Cartesian diver, a toy deep-see diver that rises and falls owing to buoyancy and openings in the diver figure. It is probable this came along long after the death of M Descartes, but was bestowed in an honorary fashion- as were many of the (Inventions) of Leonardo Da Vinc i and closer to home, Franklin.
Can the mass of the diver be predicted if the volume of the water it displaces is known?
No. That only tells you the diver's volume.
Who invented the Cartesian coordinate plane?
Renee Descartes invented the Cartesian Coordinate system, commonly known as rectangular coordinates.
How does pascals principle help explain the behavior of the cartesian diver?
Because when force is applied to a confined fluid, the change in pressure is transmitted equally to all parts of the fluid.
