WHY?

Why Is II easier TO swim In salt water
than In freshf

Why Is II easier 10 swim In salt water
than In freshf
Everyone who has learned to swim
in an inland lake or river and has
then lungcd into the ocean realizes the
great difference between the two kinds
of water. the nddcd huuyancy and feeling
of freedom in the salt water ps compared
10 fresh water But il should be rcmetn-
bcrcd that there are two functions in
hercnt in swimming The first Is to re-
main aloat aud the second IL To move
forward. II is in the first Of these that
salt water hos the nroat advantage over
that of rivers, for the effort of moving
forward is tho Same in either case.
The marked houynncy of tho salt water
il due to the fact that our bodiesare
really about three-uunrters water, but
the remaining one-uuarter is composed
Of bono and other substances which are
heavier than water and therefore tend
to make us sink Owing TO the salt in
the ocean, fresh water ia lighter and our
bodies therefore sink moro rapidly q
condition which may be carried 10 such
nm extreme that Ia some localities, IN
cluding the Dead Sea and the Great
Salt Lake of Utah, il Is almost impossible
to sink, for the greater the amount of
salt tho heavier the water and the greater
resistance 90 the force excrted by any
body pressing down upon Il.
