Dropped objects hit the ground at the same time (as long as they're dropped from the same
height) because the acceleration of gravity is constant. On earth, it's 9.8 meters per second
(32.2 feet per second) every second.

∙ 13y agoDropped objects fall at the same rate due to gravity accelerating them all at 9.8 m/s^2 regardless of their mass. This is described by the principle of equivalence and is a fundamental aspect of physics known as the equivalence principle.
Two objects dropped at the same time strike the ground at the same time because they both experience the same acceleration due to gravity, regardless of their masses. This acceleration causes them to fall at the same rate, leading them to hit the ground simultaneously.
Two objects of different masses dropped from the same height will hit the ground at the same time because gravity pulls on both objects with the same acceleration, regardless of their mass. This acceleration is a constant value and it causes both objects to fall at the same rate, resulting in them hitting the ground simultaneously.
Objects with the same mass land at the same time because in the absence of air resistance, gravity accelerates all objects equally regardless of their mass. This means that they will reach the ground at the same time when dropped from the same height.
There are many factors that can affect the time for these objects to drop. The height at which each object is dropped is a factor since the height is proportional to time. if the height at which these objects are dropped are the same, then the time for them to drop to the floor is the same. Since the acceleration due to gravity at sea level is 9.81 m/s^2 for all objects no matter the mass, both objects will accelerate at the same rate which means they will reach the floor at the same rate. All in all, both the pencil and the penny will hit the ground at the same time.
If two objects have the same mass and are dropped from the same height at the same time in a vacuum (without air resistance), they will reach the ground at the same time. This is because all objects accelerate towards the ground at the same rate due to gravity.

The objects will hit the ground at the same time since gravity acts the same on all objects regardless of their size and weight on the moon. The factor that determines which hits the ground first is the height from which they are dropped.
Both objects will fall at the same rate due to gravity, regardless of their mass. They will hit the ground at the same time unless there is air resistance acting unequally on them. This is explained by the principle of equivalence in the theory of gravity.
The key factor in determining the time it takes for objects to fall is the acceleration due to gravity, which is the same for all objects regardless of their mass or material composition. Therefore, both the aluminum and steel balls experience the same acceleration and reach the ground at the same time when dropped from the same height.
Dropped objects of different masses reach the ground at the same time in air because the force of gravity accelerates all objects equally, regardless of their mass. This is known as the principle of the equivalence of gravitational and inertial mass, as described by Galileo. Thus, in the absence of air resistance, objects of different masses will fall at the same rate.
Objects of different masses will reach the ground at the same time when dropped from the same height because they are subject to gravity, which accelerates all objects at the same rate regardless of their mass. This is known as the equivalence principle and was famously demonstrated by Galileo.
No, objects fall at the same rate regardless of their horizontal velocity. Both objects would hit the ground at the same time if dropped from the same height.
All three objects will hit the ground at the same time because in the absence of air resistance, all objects experience the same acceleration due to gravity, regardless of their mass. This acceleration causes all three objects to fall at the same rate, leading them to hit the ground simultaneously.
