Because the gravity is the same. this does not explain why real heavy objects fall at the same rate as light ones since the more mass their is their is supposed to be more gravity.....also how does space/time warped space affect such things as the falling apple

in a vacuum, yes, all objects would fall at the same rate, but otherwise no due to air friction

How does the mass of an object affect the rate of its fall?

It won't affect the rate of fall, which is 9.8m/s2. If you drop a bowling ball and a crumpled ball of paper from the same height, they will land at the same time. The earth's gravity determines the rate of fall. During the Apollo 15 moon landing, a feather and a hammer were dropped from the same height and they landed at the same time. The moon's gravity determined their rate of fall. Refer to the related link to see the demonstration.


Why did the flat sheet of paper fall at the same rate as the book?

If that's what actually happened, then you must have done the experiment either in a vacuum chamber or else on the moon, where there's no air. When gravity is the only thing around, all objects fall with the same acceleration, speed, and velocity, no matter what shape, size, or mass they have ... a feather and a bowling ball fall together. But when they have to fall through air, that's when heavy things fall faster.


If Fall is the same thing as Summer what is the same thing as Monday?

If Fall is the same thing as Summer, and there are four seasons, then that would correspond to 7 days of the week, meaning it would actually be closer to Saturday.


What did sir isaac discover about why things fall at the same rate?

No


Why do a rabbit and tiger both fall at the same rate in absence of air?

A rabbit and a tiger fall at the same rate in the absence of air because there is no air resistance affecting their falling bodies.


A rock is dropped at the same instant that a ball at the same elevation?

Any object that falls on Earth, no matter its size, will fall at the same speed. Drop a rock and a ball and both will accelerate at the same rate. The only thing that would slow them down is air resistance.


How do you converion baud rate to symbol rate?

baud rate = symbol rate= modulation rate all the same thing


Will a bowling ball and a piece of paper fall at same rate if dropped near surface of the moon?

Yes, both the bowling ball and the paper will fall at the same rate near the surface of the moon due to the moon's weaker gravitational pull. In the absence of air resistance, all objects will fall at the same rate regardless of their mass.
