Yes - but only if you can ignore air resistance, that is, if the objects fall for a sufficiently short time, and have a sufficiently high mass, and sufficiently small surface area, so that air resistance becomes insignificant.

Will two free fall bodies with different initial speeds reach ground together?

No. The one with higher initial speed will hit the ground first if they are both thrown straight down.


Does different speed of two objects effect the time it takes to reach the ground?

If thrown horizontal from same height the faster object will travel farther horizontally, but time to fall is the same. If thrown straight up, the faster object will take longer to fall


Why does a ball fall when thrown?

Because it is heaver than the air. Earth attracts all bodies towards its center. So when a body is thrown upwards it rises to height and fall downwards.


Two bodies of different masses are allowed to fall freely how do their acceleration vary?

Mass doesn't effect how fast something falls, it is their size. This is related to air resistance. The larger the bodies, the slower they fall. ( This is what i remember from my science lesson)


If 2 balls of different masses are propelled vertically upward at the same speed from the same height which will hit the ground first?

They'll both reach the top of their arcs, turn around, and begin to fall at the same time, fall with the same acceleration, and hit the ground at the same time with the same speed.


What happens when you release a ball from a height at rest?

It will fall with increasing velocity due to gravity and reach the peak velocity just before hitting the ground.


How fast Does it take to reach maximum speed in a free fall?

Terminal velocity is dictated by the gravitational attraction between the bodies, intermediary fluid properties, and drag coefficient.


Will coins of different sizes dropped from the same height fall at the same time?

In a vacuum, they will fall together. Air resistance might have a minor affect on the results.


What happens to the distance you fall during each second?

If you fall from a very considerable height then initially the distance that you fall will increase with each second that you fall. However, air resistance increases markedly with speed and this causes your acceleration to decrease so that you reach a maximum speed (terminal velocity)


How do different masses fall in a vacuum?

In vacuum, all masses big and small fall with the same acceleration, and reach the same speed in the same amount of time.


When you fall down what happens to the skeletal system?

it depends upon the height and distance. if we fall from a height we may get fractures in the bones or severe injuries. if we fall from a less height we may not get such injuries.


What height do you fall from if you fall for 6.5 seconds?

Over 9000.
