Answer 1

Answer:

When a bucket is placed, where drops of water are directly falling into the bucket, and in the instance of time if the wind blows horizontally when the water drop is falling in the bucket, then the speed of the water falling will get accelerated but the direction will get changed.

Explanation:

The reason why the speed will increase because there is already gravitational pull working, and a new extra force gets added.

Answer 2

Answer:

A) Remain unchanged

Explanation:

The blowing wind affects only the horizontal component of falling rain drops whereas the falling vertical component which fills the bucket remains undisturbed and so there will be no change in the rate of filling the bucket in both the cases.

Hope it helps
