Why do dropped objects of different masses reach the ground at the same time in air?

Because of gravity, objects fall at 9.7m/s making them reach the ground at the same time. This does not apply to objects like paper or feathers due to the fluid friction in the air.

Why do 2 objects of different masses dropped from the same height hit the ground at the same time?
Most likely because they're the same weight. Objects can have completely different masses and have the same weight.
What happens when two objects with different masses are dropped under the same gravitational conditions?
They'll both hit the ground at the same time.
Why different objects have different masses?
Objects have different mass because they not weighted the same..
Can two objects with the same volume have different masses if so why?
Yes they can, if they have different densities.
One of the factors affecting gravitational attraction between objects?
The masses of the different objects The distance between them

A cricket ball and football are dropped simultaneously from the top of Qutub Minar then what happens?
They would hit the ground at the same time, Galileo dropped to balls with different masses and they both hit the ground at the exact same time.
Why different objects have different masses?
Objects have different mass because they not weighted the same..
How is it possible for objects to have the same volume but different masses?
Their masses are different. (Mass = density * volume)
If two objects have different masses they also would have different?
no

What Country Did a scientist dropped balls of different masses from a famous tower?
the country was Italy
What actually causes gravity. What actually pulls the matter down?
Gravity is caused by the masses of the objects involved. Different objects attract each other, just because they have a certain amount of a property called "mass".Gravity is caused by the masses of the objects involved.

What can you tell about two objects that have the same volume but different masses?
the two objects in question have different densities. The denser object has more mass.
How long does it it take an object of 4 kg to hit the ground considering another object with a mass of 2 kg took 3 seconds to hit the ground?
Assuming they were in a vacuum, if both objects were dropped from th esame height, then both take the same length of time to reach the ground. All masses fall with the same acceleration, reach the same speed in the same period of time, and hit the ground at the same time. Otherwise and if there is an atmosphere or if they are dropped from different heights, you have not presented information; shape and size are the most important factors.
