If you dropped a brick a tennis ball and a feather from a building on the Moon in what order would they land?

They would land in the same order in which I dropped them. If I dropped them all at the same instant,
then they would all land at the same instant. The same can be said for a truck, a cinder block, and a hair.

When a spaceship accelerates in the vacuum of space what does it push against?
The spaceship pushes against the hot gases that are exiting out the rocket engine. This is similar to how you are pushing against the brick that you throw while you are standing on a skateboard. You go the opposite direction of the brick.
What is a rectanular block of clay baked in the sun or a kiln?
A brick. I'm doing the same exact assignment right now. :)
Does a brick weigh the same on earth as it does in space?
Weight is a measure of gravity's pull against some object. No a brick will not weigh the same on earth as in space or on the moon. It will, however, have the same mass.also weight and mass IS DIFFERENT weight is a measure of gravity pull against objects mass basicly mean how many atoms
What colors are dark?
Black, brown, navy blue, midnight blue, purple, brick red.
Where is the red brick in Cloud City Trap in Lego Star Wars II?
Under the ship's right wing in the very beginning scene. You can see a shadow if you look closely.
If you dropped a gold brick from a building would it brake?
No
What is the order of the items to land if you dropped a brick a tennis ball and a maple leaf at the same time and at the same height?
The brick and the tennis ball might land at the same time, but the leaf will fall last.
A feather falls through the air more slowly than a brick because of?
If you dropped them in a vacuum, they would fall at the same rate. However, when you do it in air, the friction from the air will slow the feather considerably, as the surface area to mass is much greater then that of the brick.
What is the difference and mass between a feather and a brick?
a feather is light weight and a brick is heavy wight i know this because you hold a brick you may fall with it you hold a feather it light very light and you do not fall so the answer is THE BRICKS MASS IS LARGER THAN SHORT MASS OF A FEATHER SO BRICK IS HEAVER AND FEATHER IS LIGHTER. NO other way to prove it right so there your answer by makayla thx please vote good
Is it illegal to park in front of a dropped curb that does not lead from a driveway but a brick wall as a result of recent building work?
Dropped curbs are usually there for delivery purposes; but as you mention there is no driveway - so No.
Why is the term brick building improper?
It isn't improper if it is a brick building. But a wood building with a brick veneer is not a brick building. Many people speak of a house as being a brick house, but it is probably a frame house with brick veneer. Perhaps that is what the question is about.
Did a guy die from a brick getting thrown at his head after he dropped his guitar on stage?
yes, a brick snapped his neck after he dropped his guitar
A feather will fall through the air more slowly than a brick because of?
because feather's weight is negligible as compare to force of gravityA feather will fall through the air more slowly than a brick because it is lighter than a brick and it's small fur on it will slow it down
Does speed have to do with inertia?
Yes. Inertia is what holds an object in motion from falling faster than the object falling at the same time. Say you have a brick and a feather. Which falls faster? Neither. You see, inertia contributes with the third law of motion, meaning an object at rest will stay at rest until a net zero force acts upon it. Meaning that inertia is that net zero force keeping that object at rest still. Now, if you dropped a brick off of the building at the same time as the feather, inertia would keep the brick from falling faster than the feather because of its speed. Gravity is pulling the object toward earth and inertia is holding it back. Same for the feather except theres less inertia because of the weight of the feather.More Speed= More inertia. Keep that in mind.
Why does a penny fall faster than a feather is it because gravity acts less on a feather?
Purely air resistance, the feather floats on the air. The mass is irrelevant. If a penny was dropped at the same time as a brick (ignoring wind resistance) both would hit the ground at the same time. Look up Galileo's tower of Pisa experiment. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galileo%27s_Leaning_Tower_of_Pisa_experiment This also includes a video of a feather and a hammer being dropped on the moon (where there is no air). Both hit the ground together.
Why does a feather fall through the air more slowly than a brick?
It is slowed down by air resistance.because feather's weight is negligible as compare to force of gravityA feather will fall through the air more slowly than a brick because it is lighter than a brick and it's small fur on it will slow it down
Do all objects not aided by the air fall to the ground at the same speed?
Yes all objects fall at the same speed but there are objects that are aided by the air that don't fall to the ground at the same speed. For example, a feather and a brick. A feather is a object that is aided by air. A brick is a object that wind cannot blow away. If I drop both of them down with the same time down a 100 feet building, then definitely the brick will totally reach the ground first ............ well and it will get crushed into pieces while the feather might be blown away into a different place and reach the ground last.:) :):):):):):):):):)
