Swimmers may change between their race and practice suits at competitions because wearing the racing suit for long periods of time can be really uncomfortable. They tend to be more form fitting and some swimmers will go down a few sizes in their race suit, making it even tighter.
The object of swimming is to swim a chosen race faster than all other contestants in your category. Swimmers are put in to 'heats' to race a chosen distance and stroke and are timed. The swimmer with the fastest completion time wins. Many competitive swimmers train constantly to became faster and gain effective techniques.
It depends on the specific competition. In most competitive swimming events, multiple swimmers can race at the same time in separate lanes. The number of swimmers per race can vary from individual races to relay events.
Yes, disability swimming is a sport in the Paralympics. Swimmers win by how many points they get. Thier points are calculated by taking their time, as a percentage of the world record for that race for that class of disability. All swimmers have a classification S1-S12 on how severly theey are disabled.
swimming is "won" by achieving the fastest time. the sport parallels that of track and field. swimmers race to the "finish line" or the wall after a set distance.

A heat in swimming is like a group of swimmers swimming the same event. Since only a certain number of swimmers can swim at a time (depending on the number of lanes, usually 8) they have to have swim at different times and usually they place heats on how fast they swim. So, if you have the fastest time going into the race then you'd be in the last heat and if you have the slowest time going into the race then you'd be in the first heat. Also they place you in lanes from slowest to fastest (if you have the fastest time you go in the 4th lane and slowest goes in the outer lanes). Hope this helps.
