The "New" Me

I changed my name.

I used to be "1399."

Now I am "Jermyn Davidson".

This is my real name.

If there is anything you all would like to know or ask about me, just ask.

If not, that's cool too.

I am doing this more for me than for anyone else. I've been going over some stuff in my head and I decided today that I should do this.

God bless you all.

Why does buttered toast always fall buttered side down?

Assuming, that the toast slips out of its container accidentally, chances are high for one side of the toast to touch the rim of the plate or container before falling freely to the ground. Assuming again that the location where the accident occurred is inside an area wherein there is no strong wind movement present, the theory of aerodynamics in this experiment is set aside.

While the toast is undergoing its free fall and it is assumed that one side of it touches the rim of its container before the buttered toast slips out of it completely, it will surely take a spiraling or rotating downward movement, thus, giving us a picture that the odds were high for the toast not to land on its buttered side. But why it is more likely to land on its buttered side?

As the toast goes downward realizing that the other side of it was coated with butter, it definitely has more weight compared to the other side that does not have a butter coating. It is known that the law of gravity or the gravitational pull is stronger in heavier objects. Therefore, due to the added weight of the butter that was being applied on one side of the toast, the buttered side of the toast is more likely to touch the ground first.

I think the man just has horrible luck!

Re: The "New" Me

"going over something in my head"

is that kind of like when you run over something in the road, the put the car in reverse, and re-run over it just to make sure there was something there, then put it back in Drive and re-re-run over it as you go along your merry way?


just asking.....

I aint arguing with you here.... but this begs a physics question that I just cant answer... as you seem to be willing to provide answers, let me ask you this.

Given that that the law of gravitational pull is stronger on heavier objects, why do all objects fall at the same rate of speed? (I believe that objects fall at a rate of 9.8 meters per second per second?
