Does Bread Land Butter Side Down? Part 2 Science Experiment Series Video 2

Data can be found at http://www.schoolfreeware.com

For All Experiments Involving Bread or Toast:

Bread or toast was dropped from a height of about 31 inches - This simulates a dinning table
The bread or toast was dropped 20 times each way
Horizontally - Butter Side Up
Horizontally - Butter Side Down
Vertically - Butter Side To The Cameras Right
Vertically - Butter Side To The Cameras Left

Final Conclusion Of All Bread / Toast Experiments:

The idea that bread always lands butter side down is not true. the data points to the fact that bread lands mostly butter / jelly side down in certain circumstances.

The toast and bread did not turn over when dropped butter/jelly side up. This might be do to the fact that the bread or toast did not have enough distance to to turn over.

As the mass increased, the bread was more likely to land butter / jelly side down.

The toast experienced a similar situation when more mass was added. However, the concave (curl) that occurred when the butter was applied to the toast caused the air resistance to favor landing butter side up.

The 1/2 buttered toast did not have a concave like the full buttered toast did. The 1/2 buttered toast did want to fall butter side down. It was observed that many times the elastic bounce flipped the 1/2 buttered toast over, so, it was more likely to land butter side up.

Some Psychology:

The myth that bread always lands butter side down can be attributed to the fact that bread may land butter side down most of the time but still leave a mess when landing butter side up. The is true when jelly was applied to the butter or peanut butter bread. In psychology, this can lead to an association that makes the person believe that butter always lands butter side down.

Association:

Butter Side Down = Mess
Butter on floor, even if butter side landed up = Mess
Jelly on floor, even if butter side landed up = Mess
Mess = Butter Side Down
