What would happen if you dropped a hammer and a feather here on earth?
The hammer would fall faster than the feather due to gravity, regardless of air resistance. In the absence of air resistance, both would hit the ground at the same time in a vacuum, as demonstrated in a vacuum chamber experiment on the Moon by astronaut David Scott in 1971.
What should happen if you dropped a hammer and a feather on the moon?
If you dropped a hammer and a feather on the moon, both would fall at the same rate due to the moon's lack of atmosphere, which eliminates air resistance. This means they would hit the lunar surface simultaneously, demonstrating Galileo's principle of falling bodies. This phenomenon contrasts sharply with what happens on Earth, where the feather would fall much more slowly due to air resistance.
What would happen if your in space with no atmosphere and you dropped a feather and a hammer?
They would both float if you had no gravity.
Why did the hammer and the feather fall at the same rate on the moon but o earth?
The hammer and the feather fell at the same rate on the Moon because there is no significant air resistance to slow down the feather, unlike on Earth where air creates drag. On Earth, the feather's lightweight and shape cause it to be affected more by air resistance compared to the hammer. This difference in air resistance leads to the hammer falling faster than the feather on Earth, while on the Moon, both objects fall at the same rate due to the lack of atmosphere.
Why did the feather and the hammer land the same time on the moon and different times on the earth?
The Earth has an atmosphere and the moon doesn't, so a falling feather on Earth runs into quite a bit of air resistance which slows it down much more than a hammer. On the moon, there is no air resistance.
When did Angel's Feather happen?
Angel's Feather happened in 2005.
Which has more air resistance a feather or marble?
a feather has
What has to happen for a feather and a ball to fall at the same rate?
For a feather and a ball to fall at the same rate in a vacuum, they need to experience the same gravitational force acting on them. This means there is no air resistance to slow down the feather, and they can both accelerate similarly due to gravity.
Among the feather and the apple which has greater air resistance?
a feather
When did Shining Force Feather happen?
Shining Force Feather happened in 2009.
How do you keep a feather in the air without touching it?
To keep a feather in the air without touching it, you can use a stream of air, such as from a fan or a blow dryer, directed at the feather. The upward force created by the air can counteract the feather's weight, allowing it to float. Additionally, techniques like using a leaf blower or a steady breath can achieve a similar effect, enabling the feather to remain suspended in the air.
What kind of force opposes the motion of the feather?
Air resistance opposes the motion of the feather. This force is caused by drag as the feather moves through the air, slowing its descent.
What object represents air?
An air balloon or a feather can be used to represent air. The balloon is filled with air and floats, while the feather is light and gets easily carried by the air.
What forces happen when you throw a football in the air?
obviously gravity and air, but other forces i'm not sure of. Just check physicsclassroom.com for additional information.
What shouldn't people who live in glass houses throw?
they shouldn't throw anything except something that weighs less than a feather
What does the term Tar and Feather mean?
To tar and feather someone is to smear or cover someone (as the Whigs di to the Tories) with tar and throw feathers over them.
What would happen if you dropped a hammer and a feather here on earth?
The hammer would fall faster than the feather due to gravity, regardless of air resistance. In the absence of air resistance, both would hit the ground at the same time in a vacuum, as demonstrated in a vacuum chamber experiment on the Moon by astronaut David Scott in 1971.
