How does each Olympic relay swimmer know when to go into the pool?
You must look down at the wall and your feet cannot leave the starting block until the other swimmer's hand touches the wall. That is why the lane judge walks up next to the starting block and watches to see the swimmers hand touch the wall in order to make sure the next swimmer does not leave early.
If a 70-kg swimmer pushes off a pool wall with the force of 250N at which rate will the swimmer accelerate from the wall?
56
Who determines what swimmer touches wall first in Olympics?
on the wall their is a touch pad and when touched it goes off it is all recorded electronically, when near the end watch the side of the starting block a light will flash red.
How is swimming played differently in the paralympics?
Able bodied swimming and dissability swimming is different as where people have missing limbs extra, the rules that apply in able bodied swimming cannot apply in dissability swimming. For example, on butterfly and breaststroke, the swimmer must touch each wall with both hands, but in a dissability meet, the swimmer would not be able to do this if they only hadhalf anarm. However the swimmer still has to push their half arm foreward as if they were going to touch the wall, but once their other handhas touched, they can turn. Hope this answered your question :)
How do they time the Olympic swimmers at the Olympic games?
The ends of the lanes have touch pads or sensors that respond to contact or pressure from the swimmer. When they hit the wall it stops the timer. Im sure they use other methods too.

What was scratched into the wall in cell no. 21 in block 11 and how was it done?
In cell no. 21 in block 11 of Auschwitz, the phrase "Never Forget" was scratched into the wall by a prisoner using a sharp object, such as a piece of metal or rock. This inscription serves as a powerful reminder of the atrocities committed during the Holocaust, urging future generations to remember and learn from the past.
If a 70-kg swimmer push off a pool wall with a force of 250 N at what rate will swimmer accelerate from the wall?
The acceleration of the swimmer can be calculated using Newton's second law: F = ma, where F is the force applied, m is the mass of the swimmer, and a is the acceleration. Rearranging the formula to solve for acceleration, we get a = F/m. Plugging in the values, a = 250 N / 70 kg = 3.57 m/s^2. So, the swimmer will accelerate at a rate of 3.57 m/s^2.
If a 70 kg swimmer pushes off a pool wall with a force of 250 N at what rate will the swimmer accelerate from the wall?
The acceleration of the swimmer can be calculated using Newton's second law: F = ma, where F is the force applied, m is the mass of the swimmer, and a is the acceleration. Plugging in the values, we get 250 N = 70 kg * a. Solving for a gives us a = 250 N / 70 kg ≈ 3.57 m/s^2.

How are laps timed in olympic swimming. Are there sensors to get the exact time they touch the wall?
yes they put these electronic boards on the wall and it senses it when you touch it
