Why would you stay close to the floor in a building that was on fire?

When a building is on fire, there is going to be a lot of smoke, and the smoke is likely to be very dangerous to breathe, and it could cause you to pass out if you breathe it, which would obviously prevent you from escaping from the fire. Since the smoke tends to rise, the best place to find breathable air is close to the floor. If you are near an exit, though, you might do better to just hold your breath and run out of the building.

Do all objects not aided by the air fall to the ground at the same speed?

Yes all objects fall at the same speed but there are objects that are aided by the air that don't fall to the ground at the same speed. For example, a feather and a brick. A feather is a object that is aided by air. A brick is a object that wind cannot blow away. If I drop both of them down with the same time down a 100 feet building, then definitely the brick will totally reach the ground first ............ well and it will get crushed into pieces while the feather might be blown away into a different place and reach the ground last.:) :):):):):):):):):)
