Is a salt pool 'slower' or 'faster' then a chlorine pool?

If by "faster", you mean ability to swim fast, then the answer is the salt water pool. A swimmer floats higher on salt water, therefore there is less water contacting less surface area on the swimmer's body, therefore, there is less resistance and a person could swim faster in a salt water pool. The salinity in a salt water pool is so minimal (maybe 1/6th to 1/12th the salinity of the ocean) the boyancy difference between a fresh water and salt water pool is minimal, if even measurable.

However, swim times are measured in such small fractions of a second, the difference would be measurable in say Olympic type events, but not in your local swim club or school pool. Both answers above make good observations. I must say, though, that I disagree with the conclusion of the first.

Having more surface area exposed makes for more drag, not less. Submarines are faster than surface ships and porpoises are faster under water than they are on the surface, right?

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
