Answer:

The air is actually an upward force of friction, acting against gravity and slowing down the rate at which the feather falls. ... Galileo discovered that objects that are more dense, or have more mass, fall at a faster rate than less dense objects, due to this air resistance. A feather and brick dropped together.
