Well, duh. But do you know why?

Another example is buildings. In the three little pigs, the first two houses, which were made of light materials like straw or twigs, were easier to be blown down than the brick house. That's because straw has a smaller mass ]]> 2016-11-14 21:03:08 UTC https://padlet.com/gaberielsmith/gabe_and_levy/wish/137554952 ah26586 https://padlet.com/gaberielsmith/gabe_and_levy/wish/295667000 Skydiving is an amazing experience, but it wouldn't be remotely as thrilling without the external force of gravity.
