Answer:

Galileo's feather and coin experiment

Explanation:

In a famous demonstration, Galileo supposedly dropped a heavy weight and a light weight from the top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa to show that both weights fall at the same acceleration. However, this rule is true only if there is no air resistance. This demonstration lets you repeat Galileo's experiment in a vacuum

Invert the tube and let the objects fall. Notice that the feather falls much more slowly than the coin.

Now pump the air out of the tube and invert it again (the pump can remain attached while you invert the tube). Notice that the feather falls much more rapidly than before—in fact, it falls almost as fast as the coin.

Let the air back into the tube and repeat the experiment. (Try to avoid rubbing the wall of the tube; otherwise, static electricity may make the feather stick to it.)
