Why does paper beat rock in a game of rock paper scissors?

It comes from an ancient Chinese tradition where when a request was sent to the ruler on a piece of "paper" or the equivalent at the time, the rock was placed over the paper if the request was accepted, the paper was draped over the rock, indicating defeat of the request, if the request was rejected. Hence, paper over rock = defeat.

Describe why pebble and a shoe fall with different accelerations and speeds?

A pebble and a shoe fall at different speeds and accelerations because the shoe is generally heavier than a pebble. The pebble has less mass than the shoe, so it will fall slower, because there is less of a gravitational force on it. The shoe, however, being bigger and having more mass than the pebble, will fall faster and land harder because gravity has a stronger pull on it.


Do hevey objects fall faster than light objects?

Not in a vacuum. All objects, regardless or mass, density, or whatever, fall with the same speed in a vacuum. Some objects may appear to fall more slowly than others (example, a flat piece of paper or a feather vs. a rock), but this is usually due to air resistance. All objects, when falling on earth, accelerate towards the ground at a rate of 9.8 meters/seconds squared.
