sixpenceee:THE HAMMER & THE FEATHER DROPPING AT THE SAME SPEED IN OUTER SPACEThe reason they fall at the same rate is because there is no air resistance in outer space.When a feather falls on Earth, there are a million air particles “bumping” into it and slowing it’s descent. Similarly, air particles “bump” into a hammer, but it doesn’t slow down because it has such a big mass. In outer space there is no air, so the two objects fall at the same rate.VIDEO -- source link
