PDST Resources for Leaving Certificate Physics 2 Which will fall faster, the 1 kg weight or the sheet of paper?

PDST Resources for Leaving Certificate Physics 3 Why is the 1 kg weight falling faster?

PDST Resources for Leaving Certificate Physics 4 Aristotle taught that the speed of a falling body was proportional to its weight.

PDST Resources for Leaving Certificate Physics 5 This view lasted for almost 2000 years until Galileo contradicted Aristotle.

PDST Resources for Leaving Certificate Physics 6 Who was right?  If Galileo was right, why does the 1 kg weight fall faster than the sheet of paper?

PDST Resources for Leaving Certificate Physics 7 Air Resistance  A falling body is acted on by a number of forces.  Its weight, due to the force of gravity, F g, acts downwards.  Air resistance, or drag, F d, acts upwards.

PDST Resources for Leaving Certificate Physics 8 Terminal Velocity  As an object falls, its velocity increases.  This causes its air resistance, F d, to increase.  When the air resistance, F d, equals the weight, F g, the object moves at a constant velocity, called its terminal velocity.

PDST Resources for Leaving Certificate Physics 9 Skydiving  With arms out, a skydiver reaches a terminal velocity of about 55 m s –1.  With arms and legs folded up, skydivers have reached terminal velocities of about 90 m s –1.  Skydiving head down at high altitude, Joseph Kittinger has reached a terminal velocity of 274 m s –1.

PDST Resources for Leaving Certificate Physics 10 Question  Convert Joseph Kittinger’s terminal velocity of 274 m s –1 to km hr –1.

PDST Resources for Leaving Certificate Physics 11 Answer Note: You might find it useful to learn to convert m s –1 to km hr –1 by multiplying by 3.6

PDST Resources for Leaving Certificate Physics 12 Back to the 1 kg weight and the sheet of paper  Can we reduce the air resistance acting on the sheet of paper so that it falls as fast as the 1 kg weight?  How?

PDST Resources for Leaving Certificate Physics 13 Roll it into a ball to reduce its surface area!

PDST Resources for Leaving Certificate Physics 14 Now That Air Resistance Is Less Of A Factor, They Fall At the Same Rate.

PDST Resources for Leaving Certificate Physics 15 Another Demonstration  Here is a coin and a piece of paper.  Which will fall faster?  Why?

PDST Resources for Leaving Certificate Physics 16 Why Is The Paper Falling More Slowly Than The Coin?

PDST Resources for Leaving Certificate Physics 17 Again, It’s Air Resistance  Place the paper on the coin.  Drop the coin.  The paper stays on the coin, i.e. they fall at the same rate when air resistance is not such a factor.

PDST Resources for Leaving Certificate Physics 18 References  Air Resistance Air Resistance  Terminal Velocity Terminal Velocity  Joseph Kittinger Joseph Kittinger  Galileo Galileo  Aristotle Aristotle
