As a person dives toward the bottom of a swimming pool the pressure increases noticeably Does the buoyant force also increase Justify your answer Neglect any change in water density with depth?
The reason why things float is that gravity addresses only the mass regardless the volume. so when a person dives deep, although he moves away the same volume, the buoyant force increases because the pressure increases, and sice the pressure affects the body from every where the buoyant force increa…se.

Where will you experience greater pressure swimming in the sea or in the pool at the same depth?
Salt water is more dense than fresh water. The added density addspressure, so the pressure will be greater at the same depth in saltwater. This is also the cause of the increase of buoyancy insaltwater.
Why does a swimming pool look shallower than its true depth?
before answering this question we should consider issues. First,why we see far things small and close things big? this is becauseour eyes cover larger area if the objest is far. secound, imagine a black spot on a whiote blank page, imagine thatthis spot is getting bigger , now you have two possibilt…ies, 1-thatthe spot is expanding and constant.2-that the spot is not expandingand it is moving towards you, actually we don,t see far things andclose things we see big objects and small objects. third, a wave'sspeed ,as light, vary in different mediums so light speed is fasterin air than in water. fourth, the area covered by a certain wave decreases , assumingthat the distance is equal, if the wave speed was faster.(thisneeds you to imagine the probagation of waves) regarding your question , now the light speed is faster in water soit enters and covers area less than the area it would cover if ittraveled the same distance in air, when the light is reflected thepicture appears to be closer because the area covered is smaller. ---- EDIT: Huge problem. Light speed is always constant. In fact, it is theonly truly absolute value we can observe, and everything else isrelative, no matter how slight it seems. Einstein would say that ifanyone reached the speed of light, time intervals would approachinfinity. i.e. time would stop!! ( Full Answer )

I'm not quite sure of the exact scientific method, but if the pool is to shallow than it would be a problem, because you could kick the bottom of the pool. I always find it easier to swim in water around 1.5m deep, because if its too deep it makes me work harder, because i want to stay afloat.

Sea water is denser, the sea. Chlorine is in minimal quantities if it's even present.
Where will you experience greater pressure swimming in the sea or swimming in the pool at the same depth?
if you are swimming at the same depth the pressure will be the same. Depth affects pressure directly proportionally. That is if you swim deeper the pressure will become greater. If you swim up the pressure will become less. The size of the body of water does not affect pressure..
Think of it this w…ay, the further down you swim the more your ears hurt. they hurt because of the increase in pressure. ( Full Answer )

Why does the floor of a swimming pool appear closer than its actual depth?
All the water in the pool bend a lot of the light that enters your eyes, so the floor appears closer and bent too. You can look at the bottom of a cup full of water, and the bottom would also look bent and closer. To have a better view of the actual depth, you can empty out all of the pool's wate…r if there's an electric switch that can do it. Once all the water drains out, you'll know whether it's a good idea to swim in this pool depending on how experienced you are at swimming. Or, you can fasten a pair of goggles on, lie face-down on the edge of the pool so that only your head and neck and maybe upper-chest are above the water and not touching the ground. Inhale and hold your breath, then bend down so that your protected eyes dip below the water so you can clearly look around the pool and see the bottom. The rest of your body (from chest to feet) should be lying on the ground with your hands clasped onto the edge of the pool, preventing you from falling in. Just to be sure, in case you might fall in somehow, have someone relatively nearby. Another way to determine the depth is to get a yardstick or a really long stick to lower into the pool until it reaches the bottom, so you can measure the actual depth of the pool. By the way, never play in a swimming pool by yourself, unless if you're a very experienced swimmer or the pool is deep enough so the water only reaches your chest when you stand up straight in the pool.

What is the average depth of a swimming pool?
This question is difficult because there is not really a typical pool. Most of the pools we build on homeowners property run from 3 feet in depth to 6 or 8 feet in depth. So the average depth would be from 4 and 1/2 feet to 5 and 1/2 feet. The normal home sized pool will range from 15 by 30 feet to …20 by 40 feet. They can be larger or smaller, but this is the normal range we build in. Commercial pools can range in depth to 16 feet for diving towers, so the average depth would be much deeper. Pools can be just about any shape also and really any depth. I hope this helps answer the question. ( Full Answer )

What is the depth of a swimming pool 15x30?
A 15 by 30 foot swimming pool can be any depth. As a constructor of gunite or concrete pools I could make any size of pool any depth from 6 inches to 10 feet or more. The size of a pool has no direct effect on the depth. We did pools for exercising horses that were 10 feet deep for the entire pool. …A pool of any size for normal use will have a shallow end, usually 2 and 1/2 to 3 feet in depth and will graduate to 6 feet for swimming or 8 or more feet in depth for diving. With fiberglass or vinyl liner pools the depths are established by the manufacturer and you will have to choose from the sizes offered what will best suit your needs. I believe some of the manufacturers may make custom sizes per the purchasers request, but the price will be significantly higher for a special order. ( Full Answer )
Why the actual depths of the swimming pool should be examined before jumping into it?
The depth of water in a swimming pool should always be examined before jumping into it because you can cause injury to yourself (and in some cases, others) if the water is too shallow. For a person of average size, 9-12 feet is suitable for jumping into, as there is plenty of room to submerge and su…rface safely. Anything too shallow- about 6 feet and under- could cause injury to the jumper- generally impact injuries that could break bones or crack skulls, depending on how you jump in and how deep or shallow the water is. Also, always make sure there is no one too close or beneath you before diving, for you could cause serious injury to yourself and them. ( Full Answer )

Can you get sick from swimming in a swimming pool?
Swimming after eating can cause indigestion because the muscles will take the blood that should be used for digestive organs. Waiting an appropriate amount of time after eating will take care of that. Another problem a person can have is if there are bacteria present in the water. Generally y…ou have problems with eye or ear infections, or intestinal upset if you swallow the water. Water has to be regularly treated with the proper amount of disinfectant. Usually chlorine is used to kill the germs in the water, but other chemicals and systems are available. Other infections could occur depending on the bacteria or fungi present. If you notice green growth in the pool (typically on the walls) or other unpleasant conditions such as cloudy water, it would be best to check with the attendant or owner to be sure the water is safe for swimming. Most commercial pools will close if they have a water contamination problem, but a private one may not close, and you need to use discretion before entering. Not only can sickness occur, but swimming within one hour of eating can cause cramps so severe that drowning can result. ( Full Answer )
