upthrust physics a level
I'm a bit confused. if for example, a ball is moving downwards in the water so drag and upthrust is up and the weight is down.
why is the resultant force at the lowest point upwards? I thought the drag decreases as the velocity decreases so it would be less on the top.
Thanks for any help.

Under what circumstance is the resultant force pointing upwards? I don't see how that would happen when a ball is falling in water. You are correct in saying that drag decreases when velocity decreases.
