objects fall at the same speed no matter what the weight... gravity effects all objects the same. i learned that in like 6th grade man lol

small block> big block

No im not saying one will fall a faster speed, but a heavier object will accelerate to max falling speed faster. So you are saying a feather and an engine would fall the same speed? Nice try tho.....

nope a feather has wind resistance as it falls and which enables the light object to be near light as the air around it. but in a vacume yes they would fall at the same speed.

Square, HA, 2x3 is a rectangle. Ohhhh yeah I got you good there


Wheelbarrow or not, my 4.6 still pretty much kicks all your *****


The 4.6 would hit the ground faster...because I said so. Plus its faster
