To solve the problem step-by-step, we will calculate the work done by the gravitational force and the work done by the resistive force acting on the raindrop. ### Given Data: - Mass of the raindrop, \( m = 1.00 \, \text{g} = 1.00 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{kg} \) - Height from which it falls, \( h = 1.00 \, \text{km} = 1.00 \times 10^{3} \, \text{m} \) - Final speed when it hits the ground, \( v_f = 50.0 \, \text{m/s} \) - Initial speed, \( v_i = 0 \, \text{m/s} \) (since it starts from rest) - Acceleration due to gravity, \( g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) ...
