When an apple falls from the tree to the ground, its energy of position (stored as gravitational potential energy) is converted to kinetic energy, the energy of motion, as it falls. When the apple hits the ground, kinetic energy is transformed into heat energy.

What is the passengers velocity on the vertical drop of the tower of terror at Disney world if the distance for the drop is 50m,

andrey2020 [161]

Assuming constant acceleration due to gravity of $a=9.8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}$ , and assuming the passengers start at rest, so that $v_0=0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}$ , we have

$v=v_0+at\implies v=\left(9.8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(5.5\,\mathrm s)=53.9\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}$

or 54 m/s if taking significant digits into account.
