Free falling objects
Simulation: m-03-free_fall.txt
The simulation addresses the experiment of free falling objects which experience the same acceleration, independent of their mass. To emphasize the fact that the inertial mass is changing proportional to the gravitational mass, the forces of inertia (as acceleration-reaction force) together with the gravitational force (as Newtonian force) can be shown as vectors or hidden.
