Do objects of same mass but of different shapes fall at the same rate?

Yes. Also, objects of different mass, whether or not they have the same shape. With normal Earth gravity, i.e., near the Earth's surface, they will accelerate at about 9.8 meters/second2. This assumes that air resistance can be neglected; once air resistance becomes significant, the acceleration will be less.

Is their any chance that the heavier objects in free fall differ from the lighter objects when it comes to its acceleration?
Yes. The acceleration depends on the aerodynamics of the shapes of the objects - not their mass.
Why do objects have different mass?
Objects have different mass because they not weighted the same..
Does the force of gravity decrease as the mass of objects increase?
No, the force of gravity increases as the mass of the object increases. force of gravity is a constant 9.8 meters/second^2 Terminal velocity will cause heavier objects to fall faster than lighter objects depending on their relative effective densities and shapes.
Do objects with the same mass but a different density fall at the same rate?
In vacuum, yes. Otherwise the object with a lower density will fall more slowly.
When dropping objects with different masses which object will land first?
they fall at the same rate regardless of their mass Maryann Saba
Do all objects of same mass but of different shapes fall at the same time?
No, there is an air resistance which resists its motion. it depends on the shape and size of the object.
Who found (discovered) that objects of different mass and weight 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

Do objects of the same mass of different shape fall at the same rate?
In the absence of air, yes they do. In air, they don't. As an example, consider a sailplane and a rock with equal mass.
