Two objects of different mass are dropped together. They fall with:
ASame acceleration
BSame total force
CDifferent g value
DZero acceleration
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Same acceleration
1. The heavier object feels a larger gravitational force.
2. It also needs more force to gain the same speed.
3. The acceleration due to gravity is the same for both.
4. So the answer is the same acceleration.
