They feel they are, overall, bad people without any particular skills or value, when they are not.
I hope this helps you
God bless and have an awesome weekend

Rotation. The Earth rotates around the sun on it’s axis. Depending how far north or south you live, and the angle of the sun at different times of year gives you the amount of daylight or darkness you will receive. So the length of day or night depends on how much the sun is able to reach the spot on a round object such as the planet Earth.
The previous part of the exercise says:
"<span>Engineers are designing a system by which a falling mass m imparts kinetic energy to a rotating uniform drum to which it is attached by thin, very light wire wrapped around the rim of the drum. There is no appreciable friction in the axle of the drum, and everything starts from rest. This system is being tested on Earth, but it is to be used on Mars, where the acceleration due to gravity is 3.71 m/s². In the Earth tests, when m is set to 18.0 kg and allowed to fall through 5.50 m, it gives 300.0 J of kinetic energy to the drum."
Since Kearth = Kmars, we have, for conservation of energy, that also the potential energies must be equal:
Uearth = Umars
which means:
m </span>· gearth · hearth = m · gmars <span>· hmars
we can solve for hmars:
hmars = (gearth / gmars) </span>· hearth
= (9.8 / 3.71) · 5.50
= 14.53m
Therefore, the correct answer will be: the mass would have to fall from an height of 14.53m.
This looks like the photo electric effect ... classical physics reckoned that if you shone an intense enough light beam on a metal you could get electrons ejected from the metal (maybe in analogy to thermionic emission - heat). It sort of "forgot" about the frequency and photon/particle nature of light.
Enter the "photo electric" effect experiment, Einstein's explanation, and the Nobel committee having an excuse to award E a Nobel prize, even though said prize was probably more for relativity.
