What does a child gain from swimming?
I am a 12 year old that swims and I love it! I think I have gained being physically fit, learning to listen, and also to relate to other people by doing something we both love! I have also gained self confidence, and pride. I would reccommend swimming to anyone! ---- Aside from the above, children who are taught to swim gain confidence in the water. You never know when they might need that confidence. If they can swim and float, they'll never drown in water. Better to have those tools and never need them, than need them and not have them. Also, maybe one day someone who swam as a child (or even an actual child), will save the life of a non-swimmer, child or adult.
How do you mark a swimming area?

you wear it tight so it doesnt fall down when your swimming. also, paint your nails to match your bikini =] also, it depends whats style bikini you have... but abmercrombie ones....your hair should be in a bun..it looks good! hope i helped!
Edit: You wear a bikini that flatters your body type -- if you are older or your bust is very large or saggy, wear something with support and shaping, or at least LIFT (not strapless). If you're young and very small-busted, long triangle styles, halter styles, and bandeau styles look very good. If you're young and your skin is firm, you can wear almost any bottom type regardless of your weight and it will look good. If you've had kids or lost a lot of weight and you have loose skin on your belly, make sure you have a bottom which is high enough to cover it or low enough that it won't hit right in the middle of the loose skin.
A necklace or two makes most bikinis look better. If your bikini is elegant, a simple gold chain with a charm is good. If it is a surf style, bead and shell necklaces work well. Have something -- shorts or such -- to throw on over it which goes with the bikini.
How many laps in a 25 yard pool is 5000 yards?
since 1 meter is equal to 1.094 yards, then one lap (one direction) in a 25 meter pool is really 27.35 yards. So then 500 yards at 27.35 yards a lap, you would need to complete a little more than 18 and a quarter laps (18.2815 to be more accurate).
A medley relay consists of four teammates doing a 50m of each stroke (backstroke followed by breastroke followed by butterfly and finally freestyle).
This differs from the 200 Individual Medley, which has a different order for the strokes: butterly, backstroke, breastsroke, freestyle. The primary reason for the change in order is that backstrokers start in the water as opposed to on the blocks. This makes it difficult (if not downright impossible) for a backstroker to start in the middle of a relay when another swimmer is trying to finish his/her leg. So, for relays, backstrokers are moved into first position.
Where did the name swimming come from?
Origin:
bef. 900; ME swimmen, OE swimman; c. D zwemmen, G schwimmen, ON svimma
The sport of swimming mainly dates back to prehistoric tmes in its origin. The paintains made in cave walls revela it was active during stone age which can be traced to around 7000 years ago. The documented evidence can be found from 2000 BC with the help of initial reference eing recorded as the Iliad, Beowulf, Gilgamesh, the Bible, the Odyssey and some other sagas. The first swimming book to be published was in 1538 A.D by a German professor The book was called 'Der Schwimmer Oder ein Zwiegespräch über die Schwimmkuns' and translated in English as 'A Dialogue on the Art of Swimming' or 'The Swimmer'. In 1800, Europe was the first to start competitive swimming with breast stroke becoming the most notable form. In 1902, the modern freestyle features such as flutter kick and the overarm strokes were first developed by an English man called Richard Cavill. Later it emerged as a main sport which was included even in the Olympics.

Why does a wetsuit make you float?
No it fills with a thin layer of water between your skin and the rubber.The body warms this thin layer and then keeps you warmer by insulating you from the cold water.
A survival or dry suit has elasticated neck,arms and leg bands which do keep you dry.
Seriously? Some simple maths will give you your answer:
1km = 10 * 100m
Swimmers take 55 secs to go 100m. Assuming their speed is constant, it would take them 10 * 55 secs to go 1km. 10 * 55 = 550, so it takes 550 secs to travel 1km.
Divide this by minutes: (550/60=9.1667) which means that they swim at 9.1667km per hour.

Why is swimming a good activity?
I swim for excersise all the time. It really keeps you in shape. My husband is a scientist and studies health. His studies showed that 80% of Americans that swim for excersise at least once a week have a chance of living longer. It keeps the bones healthy but it doesn't always make you sore. It's also good for the heart. The thing that is good about swimming, especially for older people with weaker bones, is that it isn't hard on anything. Running is hard on your knees and sometimes may grind together if you're old or unhealthy. Swimming isn't like that. That is why i swim alot to keep in shape. It also used lots of muscles, so you burns lots of calories.
How many laps in 25 yard pool equal one half mile?
Well, presuming that you equate a "lap" with "one length of the pool", a mile is 1760 yards, which means that you would have to swim 70.4 laps to swim a mile.
Thus, a one-half mile is equal to 35.2 laps or, more practically speaking, 35 laps plus 5 more yards.
However, in competitive swimming, the 1650 Yard Freestyle and 1500 Meter Freestyle races are colloquially referred to as "the mile."
The 1650 Yard Freestyle is only swum in swim meets that take place in non-metric, 25 yard pools. (There is no 1500 Freestyle in meets taking place in these yard-denominated pools.) The 1650 Yard Freestyle is 66 laps. One half of that race is 825 yards, which is 33 laps.
The 1500 Meter Freestyle is only swum in meets that take place in pools denominated in meters (pools of either 25 meters or 50 meters in length). (There is no 1650 Freestyle in meets taking place in these meters-denominated pools.) In at 25-meter pool, the 1500 Meter Freestyle is 60 laps, and one-half of it (750 meters) is 30 laps. In a 50 meter pool (i.e. an Olympic-sized pool), the 1500 Meter Freestyle is 30 laps, and one-half of it is 15 laps.
How many laps of the Olympic pool is the 400 meter freestyle?
The length of an Olympic pool is 50 meters. One lap is 100 meters so 400 meters would equal 4 laps.
1.2 miles equals how many laps?
The standard outdoor track is 400m long, a quarter mile. Five laps is 1.25 miles. I think what the person was looking for was how many laps in a pool: Most pools are 25m, if it is an olympic pool 50m: 1.2 miles = 1600*1.2 = 1920m So for 25m pool: 76.8 laps and for 50m pool: 38.4 laps
