if you drop a steel ball weighing five pounds from a height of 45 inches, will it fall more rapidly through water at 20 degrees Fahrenheit or water at 40 degrees Fahrenheit. Or will it make no difference?

water at 20 is frozen so yes it makes a difference. unless the water is moving swift enough to prevent ice. In that case the ball would drop to the bottom at the same speed.

It makes a difference, cuz since water freezes at 32 deg. the ball must first crack through the ice then fall. The ball that falls thro the 40 deg. water can just fall and have no obstacles to pass
