Upthrust due to water is greater than that of air. Upthrust exerted by water decreases weight of body. Hence, it is easier to pull a bucket of water from the well until it is inside the water but difficult when it is out of water.

Answer:

Well there is gravitational force acting on the bucket ,gravitational force is a downward force so it will be acting on the bucket making it harder to lift it
