They do if the only force acting on them is gravity. If there's any difference in the way two
different objects fall, it's the effect of air resistance. If it were only up to gravity alone, then
all objects would fall to the ground with the same acceleration. They would have the same
speed after the same amount of time, and if they're dropped together, they would hit the
ground at the same exact time.

Do heavy objects fall to the ground before light objects?
No, they fall at the same time.
Would two bowling balls hit the ground at the same time on the moon?
Yes. All objects fall at the same rate, but the rate varies depending on the force of gravity.
Do objects that are the same size fall at the same rate?
Yes. And objects with different sizes, masses, and weights also fall the same.
Who said that objects fall at the same rate of speed and challenged the teachings of the church?
Galileo said any two objects in a vacuum will fall at the same rate.
Do all objects fall at the same speed down a slope?
no, some are heavier therefore fall faster. not! all objects fall at the same rate no matter what size, Galileo said that DUH! both are wrong... partially. Some objects have more air resistance than others. The more air resistance, the slower an object will fall to the ground. ;-) -Th
Why do objects fall the ground at the same rate?
When something falls from somwhere its because of gravity and gravity has an exact speed so everything falls at the same rate
Do heavy objects fall to the ground before light objects?

Who found (discovered) that objects of different mass and weight fall at the same rate?

Galileo said any two objects in a vacuum will fall at the same rate.
Do objects of the same mass but of different shape fall at the same rate?
in a vacuum, yes, all objects would fall at the same rate, but otherwise no due to air friction
Why heavier objects fall faster than do lighter objects?
They don't. All objects fall at the same rate of speed because of weight.
Do all objects fall at the same speed down a slope?

What affect would a vacuum have on falling objects?
All object fall at the same rate in a vacuum. If you drop a feather and a bowling ball at the same time in a vacuum, they would hit the ground at the same time.
PurposeDo all objects fall to the ground at the same?
no, I don't think so
