When in free fall are you actually weightless or do you just FEEL weightless? Is it the same thing if weight is relative?
In: Physics
You just feel weightless since you are in free fall. We don’t feel speed, we feel acceleration or changes in velocity, so once you get up to speed, you don’t feel the force any more. It’s, to my knowledge at least, not quite the same since gravity is still actually acting on us, we just don’t register it the same way.
