In the absence of air, everything falls with the same acceleration, and reaches
the same speed in the same amount of time after being dropped. If things fall
through air, though, this isn't true.

Does the size of the ball effect how fast it falls?
Everything falls at the same speed. the only variable is drag. For instance a feather & a bowling ball would fall at the same speed in a vacuum, but not through the air.
Why don't all objects fall to the earth at the same velocity even though the acceleration due to gravity always the same?
because of the differences in air resistance.
Results for quarters and feathers fall at the same speed?
Quarters and feathers would only fall at the same speed in a vacuum. In air, the quarter would fall faster, as it has less air resistance.
What two things fall at the same speed?
A marble and a bowling ball fall at the same acceleration speed. Anything with the exact same shape falls at the same velocity. 10 meters/s/s
Do solid objects fall with hollow objects at the same speed?
Yes, if they have the same volume.
Why don't objects fall to earth at the same velocity?
Air resistance of an object can slow its fall. If every object had the same resistance, everything would fall at the same speed.

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

because of the differences in air resistance.
Will a stone and a feather fall with the same speed if there were no air?
both will fall at the same time
How fast does mayonnaise fall?
all things fall at the same speed
Do a pin and a ball fall at the same speed?
iT DEPENDS IF THE BALL IS LIGHT THE LIGTER MOSTLIKLEY TO HAVE THE SAME SPEED.

Who dropped weigts from the top of a tower to prove that ghravity affects everything equally?
Galileo Galilei is reported (see addendum) to have dropped a ten-pound weight and a one-pound weight off the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and proved that both fall at the same speed. Of course, a more general principle was being demonstrated, the fact that objects of any weight fall at the same speed (with the same acceleration, actually). Does this experiment fit the bill? Does it, in fact, prove that objects of any weight fall with the same speed or acceleration?
If you are in a moving car and if you throw a ball vertically up why does the ball fall in your hand?
Because both You and the ball (and everything else in the cabin for that sake) are moving with the same speed as the car :)
What condition will a marshmallow and a rock fall at the same speed?
In a vacuum.
