Ever wondered if a coin dropped from the top of the Burj Khalifa could kill someone? Let's explore this curious question. Imagine a stainless steel coin, ready to be dropped from the top of the world's tallest building. The Burj Khalifa stands at an impressive height of 2,717 feet, nearly a kilometer, with 160 floors. As I stand at the top, watching people walk around, I let the coin go. Gravity immediately pulls it down, causing its speed to increase. However, due to air resistance, which acts more strongly on flat objects, the coin's speed caps at 50 kilometers per hour after falling 50 feet. In contrast, a bullet travels at around 3,000 kilometers per hour. When this coin finally hits the ground, even if it strikes a human skull, it causes no significant harm. So, while the thought is intriguing, a falling coin from the Burj Khalifa isn't deadly.
