that would depend upon the length of the pool. The Most common lap pools in the USA are 25 yards. Some are 25 Meters. If you have an Olympic size pool they could be 50 or even 100 Meters or yards. Most of the lane lines are about 4 inches wide.
A standard lap lane in a competitive swimming pool is typically 2.5 to 3 feet wide. This width can vary depending on the pool's design and local regulations. In recreational pools, lanes may be wider to accommodate different swimming abilities and activities.
Each facility makes up their own rules. Most places allow only lap swimmers in a lap pool. It is common for there to be two swimmers in a lane in a recreational facility. The general rule, too, would be - - if the lap lane(s) are being used by someone then keep the children and yourself out of those lap lanes. Common courtesy.
Either 25 yards or 25 meters. There are even some pools that are 50 meters. But usually the pools are 25 yards.
It depends one what pool you go to. There are some swimming pools that have lines on the bottom and there are others that do not
A lap in a pool is measured by the long side of the pool. The longest length of the pool is often used for races by swimmers.
An Olympic pool is 50 meters in length so 50 meters would be one length of the pool .
A rectangular pool shape is longer than it is wide. A lap would be comprised of swimming the length of the pool.
no a lap is down and back
The distance of a lap in a standard outdoor track is typically 400 meters when run in the innermost lane. However, as you move to outer lanes, the distance increases due to the curvature of the track. Each lane is approximately 7.5 centimeters wider than the previous one, adding about 1.5 meters to the lap distance for each subsequent lane. Therefore, a lap in the outermost lane can be about 453 meters.
One lap around a standard outdoor track is typically 400 meters. However, the distance can vary based on the type of track or course. For example, a lap in a swimming pool is usually 25 meters in a short course and 50 meters in an Olympic-sized pool. Always check the specific dimensions of the track or course in question for accurate measurements.

It takes 10 laps in an 50m Olympic size swimming pool and 20 laps in a 25m long swimming pool. A lap = a length. It's confusing because on a track, a lap is an oval path around the track back to the starting point. A pool is a straight line vs an oval on a track so when you travel it's entire length, you've gone a lap.
