About Dive Theory

Dive Theory is an educational application designed to help scuba diving students and professionals understand and apply the fundamental physics principles that govern underwater diving. Whether you're preparing for your certification exams or need a quick reference tool in the field, our app provides accurate calculations and clear explanations of essential diving concepts.

The app covers four critical areas of dive theory:

• Pressure Calculations: Calculate absolute pressure, gauge pressure, and partial pressures at various depths, with built-in safety warnings for oxygen toxicity.
• Air Consumption: Determine your Surface Air Consumption (SAC) rate, Respiratory Minute Volume (RMV), and plan your dives with accurate air supply calculations.
• Gas Laws: Explore and apply Charles's Law, Dalton's Law, and Gay-Lussac's Law with interactive calculators that demonstrate how these principles affect diving operations.
• Buoyancy & Displacement: Calculate buoyancy forces, lifting capacity, and water displacement for underwater operations and object recovery.

Each calculator includes both practical calculation tools and comprehensive theory sections to help you understand the underlying physics. This dual approach ensures you not only get the right numbers but also comprehend why they matter for safe diving practices.
