Question 13

An electric quadcopter drone uses a battery to power its motors, allowing it to climb vertically at a constant speed. Some energy is wasted due to air resistance (drag) opposing the motion of the drone.

Suggest one other reason why some energy is wasted (dissipated to the surroundings) in this system.
