Thank you, figured if there was a perfect sauce it'd be common practice. Just made me curious to learn something about the physics of it all. -

Thought submarines were supposed to sink...? :P Man I bet that woulda been a trip. -

I meant calculating terminal velocity of an object rising to the surface. I was reading another thread before I posted and they were talking about a sphere rising from 300 meters. Post in thread 'Time it takes for submerged object to rise to surface'... -

Especially if I were going out of town. I wouldn't want to pack all that crap and lug it across the country. -

Thank you! How would you calculate that for a given object? If that's pretty complicated, I would think it would be rather easy to just try it out and time an object coming up from different depths. -

Huh, okay *shrug* I just skimmed a couple articles with some big words I didn't understand lol. Might do some more research on it later. -

Yeah, 30 meters seemed crazy deep, but everything I was reading made it seem like nothing. All I care about is having some fun and seeing some cool dang. In the 80s during the summer, gets down to about 50 or so in the winter. I've got a buddy that runs a dive shop, I've been planning on... -

Sorry it's been a minute, been a crazy couple days. Honestly the op was more a theoretical manifestation of a curiosity, than actually trying to solve a problem I needed to figure out, you know? When I got the idea for a reference object, I realized I didn't even know if the object would... -

Let me clarify something first. When I say free diving, I'm not talking about competitively forcing my body as far as I can into the crazy stupid depths people are doing now. I'm just interested as an extension of snorkeling, for places shallow enough it makes more sense than worrying about a... -

First of all, I'm new to the forum, and rather uneducated, so I apologize this is likely in the wrong section. I've recently (like last night lol) started looking into freediving. I haven't taken any classes or anything yet, so all of this might be common and answered there. However, one of...
