Question
Take a feather and a paper. Allow them to fall to the ground simultaneously. Which will reach the ground earlier? Why?
✓
Answer
/>There is no unique answer. It depends on the feather and paper. Upthrust due to air and force due to friction with air play very important roles here. The acceleration of a body depends on the resultant of the earth’s gravitational force on the body and the upthrust and the force of friction due to air.
