In the second case, gravity acts on you even when you are going up, in fact it is what slows you down and then makes you start to fall.
- corin_ 15y agoYes they aren't identical situations, but you'll notice in your diagram that there is a downward force acting on the fish called "gravity", which is the point I was making - that gravity is acting on fish and humans regardless of what upward forces are also present.
