The balloon falls slower than a marble because its buoyancy is greater and because its drag coefficient is greater.

Why does a feather fall slower than a marble?

A feather falls slower than a marble due to air resistance or drag. The light and flat shape of the feather encounters more air resistance, which slows down its fall compared to the denser and more compact marble that falls faster.


Does the baseball fall slower faster or at the same rate as the balloon?

The baseball falls faster than a balloon as the balloon is lighter than air and they are both different shapes.


What can you do to make a marble go slower than a feather?

stick to something immovable with glue.


Why the balloon fall slow compare to ball?

Balloons fall slower than balls due to their larger surface area, which creates more air resistance that slows down their descent. The lightweight materials used in balloons also contribute to their slower fall. Meanwhile, balls are usually denser and have a smaller surface area, which allows them to fall more quickly.


Why does heavier marble roll slower than a lighter marble down a slope?

Heavier marbles have more mass, so they have more inertia and resist acceleration more than lighter marbles. This results in slower acceleration and slower rolling speed down a slope compared to lighter marbles.


How can a feather fall faster than a marble?

A feather can fall more slowly than a marble in air due to differences in their size, shape, and air resistance. The greater surface area of a feather compared to a marble causes more air resistance, which slows down the feather's fall. A denser object like a marble will fall faster than a less dense object like a feather because it overcomes air resistance more effectively.


What gas put in a balloon would make it fall?

Any gas that is more dense than air.Answer:It is a bit more complex than that - an air filled balloon would still fall because air has the density of air. In a normal inflated balloon the air in the balloon is compressed and has a density more than uncompressed air. If the "balloon" were a plastic bag wiith no air pressure above the pressure of the surrounding air, the balloon would still fall as the combined (average) density of the balloon/bag system is greater than the surrounding air. Even if the balloon were filled with a gas with a lower specific gravity than air the balloon wll fall if the compressed gas density excedes that of the surrounding air or if the combined (average) density of the balloon/bag or balloon system is greater than the surrounding air.


Why do you fall faster than balloons?

a person would fall faster because we have more mass (weight) than the balloon.


Why does paper fall slower than a marble when dropped from the same height?

The paper has more surface area and therefore more air resistance than the marble does. If you wad up the sheet of paper in a tight ball, you'll see very little difference in the falling speed.


If you blow up a balloon tie it off and release it it will fall to the floor why does it fall instead of float?

When you release a balloon that is filled with air, the density of the balloon is higher than the air surrounding it. As a result, gravity pulls the balloon down towards the floor. The buoyant force acting on the balloon is not strong enough to overcome the force of gravity, causing the balloon to fall instead of float.


How do you make a fether drop slower than a marble?

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


Why do 5 year olds blow up a balloon slower than a older person?

Because the volume of their lung capacity is smaller
