@Logrian good one

A bowling ball doesn't weigh as much as a carrier. And yet, it sinks in the water.

@Yabai no one says density is the cause

generic discord user
2019-09-20 01:21:30 UTC  

it's like surface tension or something

Yabai
2019-09-20 01:21:32 UTC  

Oh?

generic discord user
2019-09-20 01:21:32 UTC  

i forget

Citizen Z
2019-09-20 01:21:34 UTC  

You are the only one claiming a cause

Logrian
2019-09-20 01:21:45 UTC  

Displacement, Eureka is your clue 😉

generic discord user
2019-09-20 01:21:49 UTC  

yeah

generic discord user
2019-09-20 01:21:54 UTC  

that thing

Citizen Z
2019-09-20 01:21:59 UTC  

Density happens to determine whether something sinks or rises

Citizen Z
2019-09-20 01:22:30 UTC  

Gravity however is a cause that has yet to be fully understood

Citizen Z
2019-09-20 01:22:47 UTC  

@generic discord user love u too =)

Citizen Z
2019-09-20 01:22:59 UTC  

Lol

Yabai
2019-09-20 01:23:00 UTC  

I see

Yabai
2019-09-20 01:23:14 UTC  

River does claim that density is the reason why things fall, though

Yabai
2019-09-20 01:23:21 UTC  

he made it quite clear in a past conversation with him

Yabai
2019-09-20 01:24:27 UTC  

Okay, let me ask you this. In a vacuum, a feather and a bowling ball fall at the same speed. Why? @Citizen Z

Logrian
2019-09-20 01:25:22 UTC  

Never observed, sawry 🙂

Yabai
2019-09-20 01:25:42 UTC  

So you don't believe things fall at the same speed in a vacuum?

Logrian
2019-09-20 01:26:01 UTC  

I'm not sure, it hasne been observed.

Yabai
2019-09-20 01:26:26 UTC  

So what is your current prediction on what would happen in such a case?

Logrian
2019-09-20 01:26:44 UTC  

I leave thories for NASA 🙂

Yabai
2019-09-20 01:27:00 UTC  

So, you simply don't know and won't say anything on the matter?

Logrian
2019-09-20 01:27:29 UTC  

A hypothesis is one thing, a test another, agreed?

Yabai
2019-09-20 01:27:55 UTC  

Okay, and if I show you a video of a heavier, denser object falling at the same speed as a feather, what then?

Logrian
2019-09-20 01:29:38 UTC  

It only proves that G is false, an that no resistance means objects speed falls at a similar speed, I've seen the video I think youre refering to.

Yabai
2019-09-20 01:30:12 UTC  

How do you explain this, though, without density or gravity?

Yabai
2019-09-20 01:30:28 UTC  

I think we can both agree that things don't just happen for no reason.

Logrian
2019-09-20 01:30:42 UTC  

What is 'density'?

Yabai
2019-09-20 01:31:06 UTC  

Mass per volume

Yabai
2019-09-20 01:31:32 UTC  

You answered a question with a question...

Logrian
2019-09-20 01:31:42 UTC  

Theres your answer then.

Yabai
2019-09-20 01:31:50 UTC  

...what?

Logrian
2019-09-20 01:32:10 UTC  

Things 'fall' because of a lack of resistance.

Yabai
2019-09-20 01:32:27 UTC  

Why is the direction they fall down and not upwards?

Logrian

Yabai
2019-09-20 01:32:55 UTC  

There is no more or less resistance above an object suspended in the air either.

Yabai
2019-09-20 01:36:59 UTC  

So, can you explain exactly how magnetism causes things to fall to the ground? in the video above, the person explained that all things can be magnetic, but he doesn't show how that causes them to fall, or what mechanisms are in place that create the conditions for that to happen.
