Rain Drops [Tips for Teachers]

from Everyday Science · host Little Shop of Physics

Why do rain drops fall the way that they do? Sometimes they land gently on the ground... and sometimes they splat! This has to do with the size of the raindrop, gravity, and air resistance, as we demonstrate in this video. We also show you how you can turn it into a classroom experiment!
