GETS STUCKED IN THE MIDDLE...........GRAVITY FROM BOTH THE SIDES

As the stone falls from one end the ear ts gravity starts reducing and when stone reaches at the centre of earth gravitational force is zero hence the stone shall float there and never reach the other end of earth.

the final position of the stone will be at the center of the earth because due to gravitation and due to gravity the stone will be attracted from all sides of the earth and stop at the center of the earth

and you should mention the radious and weight of the stone because you should know gravity depends on weight and the time it will require to reach the cener of the earth is related with its weight

Oi. Caramba. Well....we have terminal velocity I guess. Say 120 Km/H. When the core is reached it will overshoot and reach about halfway before going back and again overshoot the core by a quart..and so on.

Road to travel is about 12.000 km so that's about 100 hours

This is major guessing

It won't reach there...coz there will not be any gravity in the centre of the earth.. So, the stone will just stay at the centre.

It will not fall as there no earth out in the hole, so no gravitational force out there. rather it could get attracted towards the sides of the hole.

Without gravity, how will the stone reach over there?

It will come from the other side hole.

By the way, what is the diameter of the earth?

it will be stuck on the core & that will be very fast because the core can attract anything due to the hole in the center.
