A falling object weighing 220 grams experiences an air resistance force, denoted as FD = -0.100 v² Newtons, which acts in the opposite direction of its movement. If this object begins from a stationary position and descends a distance of 8.00 meters, calculate the amount of heat, in joules, produced during its descent. (Take the acceleration due to gravity as 9.80 m/s)].
