Question

A coin and a feather are dropped from the roof of a building. Which one will fall to the ground first?

Answer 1

1. When a body falls it falls under the force of gravity.
2. When a coin and a feather of the same mass are dropped from the roof, the force of gravity is the same, but in the case of a feather, its surface area is large.
3. Due to its huge surface area, the feather will experience more air resistance or friction.
4. As a result, the coin will travel quickly and land on the ground.
