Aristotle, the ancient Greek philosopher, thought that heavy objects fall to Earth faster than lighter objects. How could Aristotle's hypothesis be supported or disproved?

Sagot :

Gravitational potential energy=mass of object x gravitational field strength on earth(9.8 usually rounded to 10) x the height the object is held at

Therefore if two objects were held at the same height, the object with more mass(the heavier object) will fall faster because it's gravitational potential energy is greater than that of the lighter object
