What is a physical principle in drop zone?

One physical principle in a drop zone is gravity, which causes objects to fall towards the ground when released from a higher position. Another principle is air resistance, which affects the speed and trajectory of a falling object. These principles are important for activities like skydiving and parachuting in a drop zone.
