Air resistance.
The feather falls more slowly than the hammer due to air resistance. The feather has a larger surface area-to-mass ratio, which causes more air resistance compared to the hammer, falling at a slower speed. Without air resistance, both objects would fall at the same rate due to experiencing the same gravitational force.
Because the moon has essentially no atmosphere, there would be no drag on the feather when it falls. On earth, it would be quite a different matter. The significant surface area of the feather means that as it falls, the friction of the air on it provides significant opposing force to it as it falls. In the case of a falling hammer, the opposing force of air friction on the hammer is negligible compared to the force of gravity on it since the hammer is much heavier than the feather. Since there would be no drag on either item when dropped on the moon, the only force acting on either would be gravity and their acceleration would be only that of gravity with no opposing force to slow them down as they fell.
Air resistance is the force that opposes the motion of an object moving through the air, such as a skydiver falling through the sky or a ball thrown through the air. Gravitational force is the force of attraction between two objects with mass, like the force that keeps planets in orbit around the sun or objects from floating in space.
A feather has more air resistance than a hammer due to its larger surface area and lighter weight, causing it to experience greater drag force as it moves through the air. The hammer has a denser and more compact shape, which allows it to overcome air resistance more easily.
The feather falls slower because it has air restistance. The air pushes up on it. The rock falls faster because it's mass and how it doesn't have air resistance. Also, because toilet seats produce a gas, reacting with the feathers on a feather, making the feather rise.
th fether would usually drop slower becuase of weight if not (then it must be a huge fether.) So please do not look up this question again even though i'm no science person find a REAL EXPERT for your question thx
There is no significant amount of air on the Moon, and therefore no air resistance. This means that there isn't a force acting against the force of weight. a=f/m acceleration = (resultant) force/mass The resultant force is the weight. W=mg Weight = mass x gravitational field strength This means: g=W/m Substitute W with f (since it's the only force): f/m=g=a This means the acceleration is equal to the gravitational field strength which, of course, doesn't change. Btw, the field strength is 1.6N/kg. If you do the math, the acceleration should equal this. Hope this helped! :)
Shining Force Feather happened in 2009.
No, because there is no air to slow the down. For deeper analysis, check youtube, hammer and feather experiment on the moon. They hit the ground at the same time on the moon because there is no atmosphere, but if you drop a hammer and a feather on earth the hammer, obviously, hits first.
The input force of a hammer is the force applied by the person swinging or striking with the hammer. It is the force exerted on the hammer handle by the person's hand or arm to drive the hammer head onto the target.
Shining Force Feather was created on 2009-02-19.
The most accurate hammer force calculator for determining the impact force of a hammer is the Engineering Toolbox's Impact Force Calculator.
