BTW... in this case, we are comparing an object that weighs 5.25 oz's and an object that weighs 6095 times more.
Take 6 hours off and put a cold towel on your forehead before you attempt thinking again. I think you've already pushed yourself a little far for the week.
"power"? The word you are looking for is velocity. And the 2000lb engine is already doing 500+mph when released, it's not accelerating to 500+mph. The question is how much distance does it require (all relevant factors considered) to come to a rest from 500+mph decelerating to 0mph and assuming it became detached and airborne again on impact with no other decrease or increase of force acting on it.
The properties of air do not change as the speed of the object increases. At least not at this speed. You, in what is a painful to watch attempt at appearing to have some semblance of intelligence, are trying to describe resistance and drag.
Seriously... do you try to be retarded? I mean, after a while it starts to seem this all has to be an act. Are you, Paul Markham, Bittiebucks and DVDTimes part of some underground British club who's primary goal is to prank unsuspecting webmasters by pretending to be indescribably stupid on internet forums?

Why dont you take a running jump off this ski jump, maybe work out that what I said made perfect sense & maybe you should back off.....
Watch this & learn about weight, speed & projectory, velocity & everything else that goes together to see that something as heavy as a plane falling from the sky wouldnt nessessarily bounce or be flung a mile but at the same time, with the weight, as long as the angle was right, it could go further than something lighter.
