Ignoring wind resistance, all objects fall at the same speed while under the influence of the same gravitational forces. For example, an object on the moon falls slower than on the earth. But while on the earth, two objects of the same wind resistance will always fall at the same speed. (Example: If you drop a Bowling ball that has no holes and a marble from the top of The Empire State Building at precisely the same time, they will hit the ground at precisely the same time.)
All objects fall at the same speed.
No - aerodynamic objects will fall faster than objects that don't allow air to pass by them easily. Try this with a sheet of paper and a marble. Bottom line - All objects do NOT fall at the same speed
Yes- All objects fall at the same speed: The speed of gravity on earth which is 9.81 m/s^2. The issue here is air resistance. Yes a marble will fall faster than a piece of paper when air resistance is taken into consideration. But if you were to drop both these items at the same time while in a vacuum, then the objects would fall at the same rate. Also, as a note, "speed" is an incorrect word use here. "Velocity" would be more accurate because velocity includes direction as well as a speed, the direction in this case being "down" or "towards the center of the earth".
Above is true but to be practical the stuff we drop is not in a vacuum and therefore falls at different velocities
-Different velocities yes, but at the same acceleration. Just to remove confusion on the issue.no the all do not fall At the same speed but certain objects do.
In the absence of air, all objects fall with the same acceleration. That means that at the same time after the drop, all objects are moving at the same speed.
In a vacuum, air resistance is eliminated, and all objects fall due to gravity alone. The acceleration due to gravity is the same for all objects regardless of their mass, so they fall at the same speed in a vacuum.
no, some are heavier therefore fall faster. not! all objects fall at the same rate no matter what size, Galileo said that DUH! both are wrong... partially. Some objects have more air resistance than others. The more air resistance, the slower an object will fall to the ground. ;-) -Th
In a vacuum, all objects fall at the same speed regardless of shape or weight due to gravity exerting the same force on them. However, in the presence of air resistance, objects with different shapes will fall at different speeds due to variations in air resistance.
Yes. Neglecting the effects of air resistance, ALL objects fall with the same acceleration near the surface of the earth, meaning that any two objects dropped at the same time will have the same velocity after the same time interval.

Neglecting air resistance ... all of them.
They don't. All objects fall at the same rate of speed because of weight.
In a vacuum, air resistance is eliminated, and all objects fall due to gravity alone. The acceleration due to gravity is the same for all objects regardless of their mass, so they fall at the same speed in a vacuum.
Galileo
no depening on how heavy it is that's the speed it will go. information by wwtpody:)
The only reason falling objects don't fall at the same speed on Earth is the countering force of wind resistance. Without air, all objects would fall at the same rate, regardless of mass (ex. Galileo's ball experiments, as well as the hammer and feather experiment on the Moon).
yes, all the objects fall at same speed if we neglect air resistence but they appear to be falling at different speeds due to air resistence.
no, some are heavier therefore fall faster. not! all objects fall at the same rate no matter what size, Galileo said that DUH! both are wrong... partially. Some objects have more air resistance than others. The more air resistance, the slower an object will fall to the ground. ;-) -Th
