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

What is the time it takes an object that moves at 25 m/min to travel 505 meters?
Mrac [35]

Answer:

25 meters = 1 minute

505 meters = ? minutes

Therefore, 505/25

Therefore, 101/5

Therefore, 2.2 minutes

It moves 505 meters in 2.2min

Identify the situations that have an unbalanced force. Check all that apply. A baseball speeds up as it falls through the air. A
viktelen [127]
<span>A baseball speeds up as it falls through the air.
Yes.  Forces on the balloon are unbalanced. 
The balloon is speeding up, so we know that the downward force
of gravity is stronger than the upward force of air resistance.

A soccer ball is at rest on the ground.
No. The ball is not accelerating, so we know that the forces on it
are balanced.
The downward force of gravity on the ball and the upward force
of the ground are equal.


An ice skater glides in a straight line at a constant speed.
No. The skater's speed and direction are not changing, so he is not
accelerating.  That tells us that the forces on him are balanced.

A bumper car hit by another car moves off at an angle.
Yes.  The direction in which the car was moving changed. 
That's acceleration, so we know that the forces on it are unbalanced,
at least at the moment of impact. 

A balloon flies across the room when the air is released.
Yes.  The balloon was not moving. But when the little nozzle was
opened, it started to zip around the room.  So its speed changed.
And, as it goes bloozing around the room, its direction keeps changing too. 
There's a whole lot of acceleration going on, so we know the forces on it
are unbalanced.</span>
