Campbell's Bean and Bacon soup has a distinctively different moment of inertia than Chicken Noodle.
Campbell's Bean and Bacon soup has a distinctively different moment of inertia than Chicken Noodle. Compare with racing a solid vs a liquid inside a container.  Another variation.  Two cans of soda will reach the bottom at the same time.  Shake one of  the cans and then race.  The one not shaken wins... WHY??
