How does a fall of a feather compare with the fall of a hammer?


Question:

Answers:
Depends on:

a) are they in a vacum or not

b) are they going to fall on someone's foot or not


The feather will fall at a slower rate then the hammer because of wind resistance. The feather is more sensitive to wind even on the most calm of days, to make a long answer short. Now if you were in a vacuum with absolutely no outside interference they will fall at the same rate.
The only difference is the sound they make when they hit.They will fall at the same rate of speed!
