i downloaded a physics experiment. It was a heavy ladle and a

Both dropped to the ground at the same speed. i.e rapidly. This

theory made by galileo i believe.

Being more sensible, the experiment he described was two identically
sized spheres of different materials. 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"
