In the case of no wind, the raindrop falls vertically along a straight line in the air. The air resistance f is directly proportional to the square of the raindrop velocity, f = Kv2. If the mass of a raindrop is m, the maximum kinetic energy of the raindrop is

In the case of no wind, the raindrop falls vertically along a straight line in the air. The air resistance f is directly proportional to the square of the raindrop velocity, f = Kv2. If the mass of a raindrop is m, the maximum kinetic energy of the raindrop is

When V is maximum, Mg = kV ^ 2 V ^ 2 = mg / K, w = 0.5mv ^ 2 = m ^ 2G / 2K
