FOr what it's worth, unless you have a very odd ladle, you should have seen a very large different in the two falling times, unless you were working in a vacuum. erm... like on the moon? Close enough, yes. Why? I very much doubt that anyone has shipped a heavy ladle to the moon, were you perhaps referring to something else? nope twas the moon. It was a hammer and a falcon feather and it was to demonstrate galileos theories on gravity fields "who is partly responsible for us being here today" |
