"I just want to point a little typo in the book and it is shown in bold below. wind force is independent of mass(found in page 99) ................wind was used instead of gravity.
While the objects now fall at the same rate, because the strength of the wind force is
independent of mass, the smaller objects still accelerate to the right more quickly.
Making up forces will actually get us quite far. "
Actually I think what I have written is correct, but maybe it's a bit confusing the way it is worded. Will revisit.
