    try look at 4:00 with x0,25 speed, clearly the small ball is dropped later than the big ball, if they would be dropped the samme time, they would also hit the ground same time.

      As a physics teacher, we always have to explain simple physics models under ideal conditions. Once this knowledge is settled, we can go further and add the forces that makes the theory match experimental results.
      Imagine explaining the equations of motion for free falling objects where the acceleration is Weight/mass-C_a*density*Area*Velocity² instead of just g. This is a differential equation which leads to an exponential equation instead of just a quadratic equation.

    I've never understood this concept. Since terminal velocity is a thing that means things do fall at different rates because they can reach different velocities, with the differences exponentially increasing over time. And if gravity is applied equally to each object then the denser object with more mass should have a higher potential velocity and move faster. What am i missing here?

    • @tonylee1667
      @tonylee1667 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Terminal velocity is due to air resistence, and in vacuum terminal velocity does not exist. Gravity is proportional to the object's mass, so the object with more mass recieves more gravity, but since the heavier the object the inertia, the two objects accelerate at the same rate. However, since the gravitational force is stronger for the heavier object, the acceleration of the earth towards the object is very slightly stronger, but the difference is about as much as the difference between the speed of light and the speed of a rat, so it is just considered as 0

      I was thinking the same thing. But it wouldn't do to just have a board and let them roll down. You'd need horizontal board on a hinge (with an upright to separate the objects,) and a support for the board that could be pulled away at will, perhaps using a fast piston. Even then the board would impede the initial fall of the objects. So perhaps the piston should pull down the supporting board very quickly, leaving the objects instantaneously suspended in air (a la Wile E. Coyote)

    Poorly designed experiment, no control at all and not isolating variables. If you were to conduct this properly, you'd have used uniform sized balloons, with different weights added to them. With other series of possible tests for isolating area as well as shape or weight distribution. afaik, air resistance is negligable in cases where the velocity is low, the cross-sectional area is small, or when density is high. Negligible meaning that force of gravity is proportionally much larger than force of air resistance

  • @konstandinosguc7043

    Are you serious.. You used two persons to drop things... how accurate you think they can perform the test? Especially on that small height.. Ideally two objects should be hanging on some kind of rope and by cutting the rope both object should start falling simultaneously. At least make an experiment with one person. In experiment like this every time one person will be late fraction of a second which will give incorrect result. Furthermore, you should use heavy and very heavy object to avoid the air resistance....

      I noticed the same thing, but by using reference points along the way and counting frames they could compensate for the slow reaction time of the assistant. Ideally, both objects would be resting on a spring loaded platform that could be instantly snapped down, allowing both objects to momentarily "hover" before succumbing to the force of gravity, but that would entail much more cost and setup issues, for what is just a small experiment. And once again, the video frame rates against reference points easily allowed them to compare the results.

    I’m can’t help but believe the massive mass of the earth makes the mass between the objects being drops insignificant. Even to ten thousands of a second. Earths mass is approximately 5,973,600,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg.
    So dropping a massing of 1000 kg vs a mass of 1 mg towards the earth in a vacuum would be so insignificant even cameras with the highest frame rates available to us wouldn’t be able to catch it.
    I believe if one were to be uninfluenced by the forces of gravity by any other object, and in a vacuum; a golf ball would hit a bowling ball before a grain of sand did, and it would be recordable.

    • @ChrisStoneinator
      @ChrisStoneinator ปีที่แล้ว

      That's not how this is working actually. Even if the Earth was small the same principle would apply.
      Essentially, the force an object experiences due to gravity is directly proportional to its mass (hence the concept of weight). Weight (Force) = Mass x Grav. field strength. But because acceleration of an object is equal to the force on it *divided* by its mass, the mass cancels back out again, and acceleration is *always* equal to gravitational field strength. Mass has no effect. Not "little", none.
      The only difference an object's mass makes, is to the rate at which the earth is pulled towards *it*. This does not factor into a side by side comparison where both objects are pulling the Earth the same way. If you did it as two separate tests/recordings, you'd be right; the mass of the Earth would be making this difference insignificant still, because the Earth is so massive it's barely pulled at all.
      Your golf ball/grain of sand scenario is actually a really good example of this concept, so let's examine it! Both the golf ball and the grain of sand would accelerate towards the bowling ball at the same rate, because that depends only on the field strength of the bowling ball. But the golf ball would pull the bowling ball faster, because it has a stronger field than the grain of sand. You wouldn't be able to detect the difference in speed between the golf ball and the grain of sand because there would be none, but the difference in speed of the bowling ball would be dramatic.
      There would be a difference in collision time because of the difference in bowling ball speed, but not much, because the grain of sand/golf ball would still cover the majority of the distance, and at the same speed each. The bowling ball would just come a tiny bit further to meet the golf ball, making it slightly quicker.

      Asrat Mengesha Earth is not pulling! Earth mass creates curvature in the space-time (refer Einstein theory of general relativity) and obejects close by fall into the curvature. Coming to your second question, Why Bird able to fly? The ans is , bird able to fly only because air. Flapping creates more air pressure in the bottom of the wing and low air pressure on top of the wing. This counters gravitational force. More the mass, more energy required to fly. In fact if there is no air, bird/plane can’t fly (of course we cannot survive if there is no air:))

    What matter maintains the constant /variable distance between objects in space if objects in space are pulling each other by "gravity"?
    Momentum, the momentum of each and every object in space?
    No. First, the earth is stationary, therefore, the momentum theory, in this case, is the just mathematical formula. Second gravity does not exist, we know that one way of observing the shape of the earth. Whether the earth is flat or sphere we cannot walk the underside of the earth or of any object.
