Answer:
∴ The pressure on a swimmer 10 m below the surface lake is 2 atm, thus, option (D) is correct. Note: We can see from the answer that the pressure at a depth of 10m is much more than the pressure at the surface of the lake. So as the depth under the water surface increases the pressure also increases.
