What change does air drag cause in the mechanical energy

Reference no: EM13719271

Problem: A 0.54 kg banana is thrown directly upward with an initial speed of 3.1 m/s and reaches a maximum height of 0.47 m.

Part A: What change does air drag cause in the mechanical energy of the banana-Earth system during the ascent?

I need tutor help to solve the above problem and please include units. Thanks.
