Answer:
c) The distance between the balls increases.
Explanation:
If you drop the balls at the same time, regardless of their masses they accelerate equally, since they will be in free fall.
However, if you drop one of the balls earlier, then that ball will gain velocity, whereas the second ball has zero initial velocity. At the time the second ball is dropped, both balls have the same acceleration but different initial velocities.
According to the below kinematics equation:

The initial velocity of the first ball will make the difference, and the first ball will travel a greater distance than the second ball. Hence, their distance increases.
(a) No, because the mechanical energy is not conserved
Explanation:
The work-energy theorem states that the work done by the engine on the airplane is equal to the gain in kinetic energy of the plane:
(1)
However, this theorem is only valid if there are no non-conservative forces acting on the plane. However, in this case there is air resistance acting on the plane: this means that the work-energy theorem is no longer valid, because the mechanical energy is not conserved.
Therefore, eq. (1) can be rewritten as

which means that the work done by the engine (W) is used partially to increase the kinetic energy of the airplane (
) and part is lost because of the air resistance (
).
(b) 77.8 m/s
First of all, we need to calculate the net force acting on the plane, which is equal to the difference between the thrust force and the air resistance:

Now we can calculate the acceleration of the plane, by using Newton's second law:

where m is the mass of the plane.
Finally, we can calculate the final speed of the plane by using the equation:

where
is the final velocity
is the initial velocity
is the acceleration
is the distance travelled
Solving for v, we find

For rotational equilibrium of the door we can say that torque due to weight of the door must be counter balanced by the torque of external force

here weight will act at mid point of door so its distance is half of the total distance where force is applied
here we know that

now we will have


so our applied force is 72.5 N
