Answer: -31.36 m/s

Explanation:

This is a problem of motion in one direction (specifically vertical motion), and the equation that best fulfills this approach is:

V_{f}=V_{o}+a.t  (1)

Where:

V_{f} is the final velocity of the supply bag

V_{o}=0 is the initial velocity of the supply bag (we know it is zero because we are told it was "dropped", this means it goes to ground in free fall)

a=g=-9.8m/s^{2} is the acceleration due gravity (the negtive sign indicates the gravity is downwards, in the direction of the center of the Earth)

t=3.2s is the time

Knowing this, let's solve (1):

V_{f}=0+(-9.8m/s^{2})(3.2s)  (2)

Finally:

V_{f}=-31.36m/s  Note the negative sign is because the direction of the bag is downwards as well.
