When we drop the stone in air then during its motion in air the net force on the stone is due to gravity

so its net force is given as

F = mg

here we know that

ma = mg

so we have

a = g

now as soon as it will enter into the water then it will have resistive force due to water as well as buoyant force due to water on it in opposite direction

so the net force on the stone will decrease

so as soon as it will enter into the water the acceleration of stone will decrease due to which the rate of increase in speed of the stone will decrease as it will enter into the water

Where does salt in the ocean come from
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Salt in the ocean comes from two sources: runoff from the land and openings in the seafloor. Rocks on land are the major source of salts dissolved in seawater. Rainwater that falls on land is slightly acidic, so it erodes rocks.

Which of these best describes the relationship between the incident ray, the reflected ray, and the normal for a curved mirror?(
lions [1.4K]

For a curved mirror, all points have the same normal and the angle of incidence is also equal to the angle of reflection.

According to the laws of reflection, the incident ray, reflected ray and normal all lie on the same plane. For a curved mirror, the normal remains the same at all points along the curved mirror.

Again, the angle made between the incident ray and the normal is the same as the angle made between the reflected ray and the normal. Therefore, the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence.
