do you feel pressure of water depth when swimming?

If you go under the water a few feet you may feel the pressure. It increases .432 PSI per foot. When diving the sensation is pressure on the ears similar to landing in an airplane. Equalize this by valsalvating. (Piching your nose and blowing against it) Normally swimmers do not feel the pressure as it only effects divers either scuba or high board. Tim

Not very much.  The water pressure on your body would prevent you from being able to bring in air that is at normal atmospheric pressure.  You need a compressor on the surface and a hose to breath from.

You get wet about the same amount.\nMythbusters did a segment on this question a few months ago, try checking their website

It is definitely possible to cry under water, especially if you are using scuba equipment.  Without this equipment, it would be difficult to carry out the normal crying process as sniffling and panting, which are a normal part of the crying process, could not happen.

The pressure against the wall is equal to the weight of the water above it. If you are measuring pressure in pounds per square inch, the pressure at a given depth is the weight of a column of water 1 inch by 1 inch by the depth.\n\nYour explanation of what the solution should be makes no sense whatsoever. You cannot provide a proof of a pressure principle with electronics.

Air pressure is caused by the wight of the gasses above you, just like water pressure is caused by the weight of water overhead. The deeper you are either in water or the atmosphere the more weight of gasses or water.\n\nThe weight of all the gasses over your head at sea level is close to the weight of a compact car. You don't notice it because its the air pressure our bodies are adapted to. Just like the animals in the deep ocean don't notice all the pressure on them because it's the environment they're adapted to.

You CAN sweat while swimming.  It depends how much you exert yourself, how warm the water is, and how prone ou are to sweating.

There are many effects that pressure has on human physiology from nitrogen narcosis, inert gas saturation of tissues, and even disbaricosteonecrosis. You could write a book and still not fully explain the effects of pressure on a human and indeed many have been written. But your question regarding water is a very simple one. Water is incompressible. Therefore no mater how great the pressure is the density and thus the weight do not change. There is one effect that might make it seem like the water is heavier though. Water has a predictable yet subtle thermal expansion patteren. Typically the deeper one goes, the colder the ocean is. Water is densest around 35 degrees Fahrenheit. So we can say that cold water is hevier than warm water, but not a whole lot.

the very fundamental: the human body floats in the water, try this yourself by staying calm (and don't cheat by stepping on the bottom! lol). then slowly try to move your hands and feet in order to push your body towards one direction. Needs a tiny bit of practice but you'll get it. It's very easy! good luck!

Having been in the stuff while my more experienced friends stood around and laughed, I can tell you -\n\nYou won't drown.  Its just like water, only thicker.  It doesn't "suck you down".  Stay calm and swim out slow motion.

Yes! you can even swim on your period it won't hurt anything? you wont bleed while in water it's like taking a bath the bleeding will stop and start back after you been out the pool for a while.

The most common misconception about swimming is you hold your breath while your face is underwater. That's like telling a runner that you can only take in a breath on every 5th stride. When swimming you are breathing just as you would any other sport except you have to regulate your breathing. While your face is underwater you should be blowing out your air, slowly. The 2 main reasons are 1) blowing out underwater helps you to keep your mouth and nose clear of water and 2) it will give you more time to take in air when your face is above the surface of the water.\n\nBlowing air slowly underwter forces the unwanted water out of your nose and mouth. If air is coming out, water can't come in. It also helps gives you more time to take in breaths. The short time that your face is above the surface of the water, should be spent taking in air. When you expel most of your air underwater, you clear your airway and should be able to get a bigger breath of air when your face bareaks the surface. If you have to expel your air and take in a breath in that short time you will probably not get a good breath.\n\nA drill that helps is to do a single arm stroke, stroke using your right arm only, then your next set practice only your left side. When doing this your body is being leveled off by your kick. This way you can take a slower stroke and concentrate on your breathing. Watch your head position: your spine should be straight, chin tucked by your shoulder, and concentrate on looking slightly back when your face surfaces. Practice breathing on both sides and blowing yur air out. A lot of times this helps to keep your body more balanced and you will be able to swim straighter.

it doesn't swell, but because of pads/tampons that are designed to absorb wetness, sometimes, especially if your menstral flow is very light, it can get dry and slightly uncomfortable, making it feel like it's swollen.

This is weird. I can swim great but when i was 12 (i'm now 18), i was in a pool and my friends brother jumped on top of me and started choking me underwater. I guess mine would have to be drowing.

The most common misconception of swimming is that you float on the water. The truth is you don't float above water but underwater. Most of your body is underwater. While swimming you are not trying to float but trying to keep your body level and more hydrodynamic in the water. Of course you are not trying to swim 3 feet underwater but most people will be buoyant enough in the water to stay near the surface, where you would like to be.\n\nThe key to staying buoyant is to relax. If you look at the physical make up of your body, the upper torso is the most buoyant part of your body because of your lungs. Your feet and legs are the most dense and will sink. Let them sink. Be aware of where your legs are floating. Whether on your front or back, by extending your arms above your head you are moving the center of your density higher. This should cause your legs to raise up a little bit more. When you are swimming keep your body stretched out and this will help to keep your body level or more hydrodynamic. The kick will also help to keep your body level.\n\nTo explore your own buoyancy try and sink. Most people will realize that its much harder to sink to the bottom than it is to stay buoyant.

Below.\nWhy?\nBecause at 100ft above water you only feel the air pressure there. While at 100ft below water, you feel both the air pressure ( strictly spreaking in physics ) plus the water pressure there.\n\nAlso, note that water is more dense than air. This means for each space, water exerts more pressure compared to air for that same displacement of space.\n\nFurther, pressure that we feel is created due to the displacement of water or air moleculs respectively by the object. So, neighbouring air/water moleculs try to "displace out" the object that caused the "imbalance" where originally there were only air/water moleculs before the placement of the object.

Don't worry !!! First you must feel very comfortable in the water - walk, run, jump etc. Next step is contact water with your face. If you feel that everything is all right then you can hold your breath under the water: standing at the wall, with and without float (or another equipment). First start swimming with some equipment (legs, hands) and then start do it without those things. Process of learning  is very difficult to describe and put it down.I can say something more about your movement in the water  if I could see how you move.Some people learns very fast some doesn't want to even put their face into the water. I had all of them and now their can swim :) so don' worry :)
