Question

When we are in a swimming pool how does the water not enter our body through our nose?(when we are not breathing outwards or inwards)

Solution

The water does not enter into the nose while we are swimming in the swimming pool, because we are supposed to inhale the air through mouth only and exhale it through mouth and nose. If water enters the nose, it is blown out by exhaling air through nose. This prevents the water entering our body through nose.
