In a vacuum, both a brick and a feather would fall at the same rate and touch the ground at the same time because there is no air resistance to slow them down. This is because in a vacuum, all objects fall at the same rate regardless of their masses.

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.:) :):):):):):):):):)


What will hit the ground first a leaf or a feather?

Ignoring air resistance, both a leaf and a feather will hit the ground at the same time when dropped simultaneously, regardless of their weight. This is due to the gravitational acceleration acting equally on both objects.


Which object, a feather or a hammer, hits the ground first when dropped from the same height?

Both the feather and the hammer will hit the ground at the same time when dropped from the same height in a vacuum. This is due to the principle of gravity, which accelerates all objects at the same rate regardless of their mass.


Which is faster to reach ground feather or ball in free fall?

Both the feather and the ball will reach the ground at the same time in a vacuum due to the acceleration due to gravity being constant for all objects. However, in the presence of air resistance, the feather will take longer to reach the ground compared to the ball due to its larger surface area and lighter weight.


What would fall first a rock or a feather?

The mass is irrelevant, the only factor that effects how fast anything falls on earth is air resistance. The feathers obviously have more air resistance than the rocks and so the rocks will fall faster. If this was done in a vacuum however one gram of feathers would fall at the same rate as a tone of rocks.

When two object have different weight falling from same height which will come first?

drop a brick and a feather at the same time.. u tell me

On the Moon if a basketball and a feather are dropped from the same height about the ground which one hits first?

both reaches the ground at the same time because in the moon there occurs free fall.

What would touch the ground first a feather or an paperclip?

In a vacuum they would reach the ground at the same time (assuming they are released at the same time and from the same height). When not in a vacuum, however, air resistance is acting on both items - and so the paperclip would touch the ground first.


Which of newton laws apply when a coin hit the ground faster than a feather?

Newton's First Law (law of inertia) and Second Law (F=ma) apply when the coin hits the ground faster than a feather. The coin's greater mass means it requires more force to overcome inertia and fall faster than the feather. The acceleration of the coin is greater due to the larger force acting on it compared to the feather.


What shape was LEGOs first brick?

The first Lego brick was a 4x2 white Lego!


Why would a brick hit the ground first before an apple?

In the absence of an atmosphere it wouldn't. Even with an atmosphere any air resistance would be negligible.


How do you put bricks floating in mid-air on ROBLOX?

To create "floating" bricks you must be building in the Roblox Studio mode. First create a brick and raise it above the baseplate (the ground). Then select the brick and in the object properties select "anchored".
