YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Isaac Newton's second law of motion is one of the most universally recognised equations of all time, possibly second only to e=mc^2. Using this beautiful formula, we can deduce exactly why objects of different masses will accelerate towards the earth at the same rate during free-fall. It gets a bit mathsy, but stick with it.

This video couldn't have been filmed without the help of Mattie McDonagh of the YouTube channel Swish. I hope you will all hop over to his channel and subscribe
