If an object is dropped in air through a relatively short known height (say 2m) on earth, then ignoring any air resistance its velocity on impacting the ground can be calculated from standard laws of motion. Its kineteic energy at impact can then be calculated if its mass is known. My question is what would be the approach for calculating the velocity and/or kinteic energy for the same object dropped through the same height in water?
