I would assume air resistance is negligible and so the acceleration of the package would be approximately 9.81 m/s².
Taking downwards as positive, use v²=u²+2as.
v²=(-2)²+2(9.81)(14)
v=16.7 m/s
The force equation can easily prove this. F=ma. This states that the force on an object is equal to mass times acceleration. If the mass stays the same and the velocity of the cars increases than that means there is a larger force. This is because in both cases the cars are stopping in almost an instant and the times of the crashes are theoretically identical. Acceleration is the change in velocity over time. If the velocity is higher with the same amount of time than that means there is a higher acceleration. If you plug a higher acceleration into the force equation then you wind up with a higher force and in turn a more damaging collision.

The y-component of the stone's velocity when it is 8 m below the hand is 14.86 m / s
v² = u² + 2 a s
s = Displacement
u = Initial velocity
a = Acceleration
u = 8 m / s
s = 8 m
v² = 8² + 2 * 9.8 * 8
v² = 64 + 156.8
v = √ 220.8
v = 14.86 m / s
The equation used to solve the problem is an equation of motion. These equations are designed to locate an object in motion using components such as velocity, displacement, acceleration and time.
Therefore, the y-component of the stone's velocity is 14.86 m / s
