Question

For thousands of years people thought that heavier objects fell faster than lighter objects. In fact, this is something that we can sometimes observe in our everyday lives. But according to Galileo this is wrong! His Law of Falling Bodies says that all objects fall at the same rate. After watching the assigned video please comment on how it is possible that Galileo's theory says one thing but our everyday experience says something else.

Gallileo is CORRECT in a vacuum where there is no air friction

air friction affects same or different weight objects differently and will cause same-weight or different weight objects to fall at different speeds
