Why does a stone fall faster than a feather?
The difference is in the air resistance. Without air resistance, both will accelerate at the same rate. If there is air, in the case of the stone the ratio of surface area / weight is less than that of a feather. As a result, the stone will slow down less than the feather, and fall faster.
Why a feather and a small stone take different time to reach the groundEXPLAIN?
A feather has a larger surface area compared to a small stone, causing more air resistance. This air resistance slows down the feather's fall, while the stone's higher mass allows it to fall faster through the air. Additionally, the shape and density of the objects also play a role in determining their falling speed.
Does the Feather and stone falls at the same speed due to earths gravity and zero air resistance and the gravitational force is the same for the feather and the coin?
A feather and a stone do not fall at the same rate. The feather falls at a slower rate because a feather is subject to the effects of air resistance (it's air resistance to weight ratio is small. A stone has a large air resistance to weight ratio) . The feather may also be subject to blowing winds. Think of 2 pieces of wood. One is 10 lbs and is a sheet, the other is 5 lbs and a block. The weight does not change how fast they fall but the resistance to the air does and so the 10lb sheet of wood takes longer to fall.
If a stone and a pencil are dropped simultaneously in vacuum fron the same height which of two will reach the ground first?
In vacuum, both the stone and the pencil would fall at the same rate due to gravity and there would be no air resistance to affect their acceleration. Therefore, both the stone and the pencil would reach the ground at the same time.
Which would fall with greater acceleration in a vauum a leaf or stone?
In a vacuum, both the leaf and the stone would fall with the same acceleration, as they would be subject only to the force of gravity. This is because the acceleration due to gravity is constant regardless of an object's mass.

Given this the amount of time it would take the stone to fall in air compared to in a vacuum would be what?
longer because the stone has less kinetic energy
Why is a stone heavier than a feather?
A stone is heavier than a feather because of its higher density. Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume, and stones typically have a much higher density than feathers. This means that for the same volume of material, a stone will have more mass and therefore weigh more than a feather.
How do falling objects behave?
Falling objects behave in such a way that heavier objects will fall faster than the lighter ones. Try to drop a stone and a feather from the same height and at the same time, the stone will fall to the ground first.

Which force makes a feather fall to the ground more slowly than a stone?
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.

What would happen if you dropped a feather on the moon?
If you drop a feather on the moon, it will fall from your hand with an acceleration of 1.62 meters (5.32 feet) per second2, and never a ripple or a flutter. If you drop the feather and a stone at the same time, they hit the ground on the moon at the same time.
Why would a 94 blazer brakes hard as stone?
No power assist Severe vacuum leak Bad brake booster
