What is the pressure on a swimmer 10 meter below the surface

the total pressure on the swimmer would be the sum of the atmospheric pressure and the pressure due to 10m colum of water
so,
P = Patm + ρgh
here
Patm = 105 N/m2
ρ (of water) = 1000 kg/m3
g = 9.81 m/s2
h = 10m
thus, we have
P = 105 + (1000x9.81x10)
so, total pressure
P = 1.981 x 105 N/m2
