Gravity causes all objects to fall to earth at the same time. (some objects do not like paper and yarn because of air resistance. but if you block the air resistance by placing it on a book and dropping, it will fall at the same time. Or if you reduce surface area) Gravity causes all objects to fall with an acceleration of 9.8m/s*2
No, they fall at the same time.
Yes. Neglecting the effects of air resistance, ALL objects fall with the same acceleration near the surface of the earth, meaning that any two objects dropped at the same time will have the same velocity after the same time interval.
On Earth, all massive objects are subject to the same gravitational acceleration - although air resistance affects different objects differently, so a feather accelerates more slowly than a hammer. But, as was famously demonstrated on the Moon, in a vacuum, both will fall in exactly the same time.
In the absence of air, all objects fall with the same acceleration. That means that at the same time after the drop, all objects are moving at the same speed.

Because up to that time, everybody knew that heavy objects obviously fall fasterthan light objects do, and obviously hit the ground sooner than light objects do,except that everybody was wrong.

Two objects falling at the same time will fall with the same speed (assuming they both have similar shape and density)
All objects will reach the ground when dropped or when they fall at approximately the exact same time except for paper.
Falling objects behave in such a way that heavier objects will fall faster than the lighter ones. Try to drop a stone and a feather from the same height and at the same time, the stone will fall to the ground first.
Because gravity pulls the masses down at the same rate.
1 leaves a shoe in the tree.
Because here on Earth, in the 'laboratory' where you must make all of your observations, everything you see falling must fall through air. The presence of air has a substantial effect on what you observe. If you could do the experiments without air, and have nothing but gravity affect your falling objects, you would see a feather and a truck fall with the same acceleration, reach the bottom at the same time, and hit the ground with the same speed.
