A swimmer wears a heavy belt to make her average density exactly equal to thedensity of water (ρ=1000kgm3). Her mass, including the belt, ( m= 60 kg ) . a) The swimmer&#039;s weight W=mg =60kg⋅9.8ms2 =588N b) The swimmers volume V=mρ =0.06m3 c) At a depth of ( h = 2 m ) below the surface of a pond, Since: average density of person = density of water (ρ=1000kgm3) The bouyant force acts on the swimmer F=Vwater⋅ρwater⋅g =0.06⋅1000⋅9.8N 588N At a depth of ( h = 2 m ) below the surface of apond, She feels Two force (i) The bouyant force (ii) Due to atmospheric-pressure
