| Description |
Various objects are dropped in pairs from a
fourth floor |
|
window. Most
of the objects are dropped from a trapdoor |
|
device so
that they are released at very nearly the same |
|
time. As a
result of air friction, the objects experience |
|
changing acceleration. |
|
|

|
| Scaling data |
The marks on the rope are 1.00 meter apart. |
