Answer:

t_a = 7 s

t_w = 5 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- The average speed in air v_a = 16 m/s

- The average speed in water v_w = 3 m/s

- The total distance D = 127 m

- The total time T = 12 s

Find:

How long did the stone fall in air and how long did it fall in the water?

Solution:

- Lets time taken by stone to drop through air as t_a = t_a.

- The time taken in water would be t_w = (12 - t_a)

- The total distance covered can be calculated as:

                            D = v_a*t_a+ v_w*(12 - t_a)

                            127 = 16*t_a + 3*(12 - t_a)

Simplify and solve for t:

                            91 = 16*t_a - 3t_a

                            13*t_a = 91

                            t_a = 7 s

                            t_w = 5 s
