No, the amount of gravity an object has depends on its mass. Objects with greater mass have stronger gravitational pulls.
Yes, gravity acts on all objects in the same way, regardless of their mass or composition. All objects fall to Earth at the same rate due to gravity, following the principles of Newton's law of universal gravitation.
No. Gravity can be thought of as a force, but that is due to its effect on anything that possesses mass and/or energy. The effect that gravity exerts on any object is proportional to the amount of mass that is responsible for the presence of gravity and is also proportional to the amount of mass possessed by the object experiencing that gravitational presence. Therefore a gravitational field will exert a greater 'force' on a greater mass. However, mass also possesses the characteristic of inertia, which is a measure of resistance to any change to a state of motion - which effectively is a resistance to the effect of gravity. Inertia is also proportional to mass. What this means is that the greater the mass, the greater the pull it experiences due to gravity but at the same time, the greater is its resistance to that pull. Hence all falling objects experience the same acceleration due to the effect of gravity which is not the same as the force. All objects fall at the same rate. ========================= (Note: Gravity does not exert the same force on all objects, which is the reason why big people "weigh" more than smaller people do on the same planet.)
Yes, gravity affects objects of different sizes in the same way. It depends on the mass of the objects and the distance between them. All objects are attracted to each other by gravity, following the universal law of gravitation.
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.
They do if the only force acting on them is gravity. If there's any difference in the way two different objects fall, it's the effect of air resistance. If it were only up to gravity alone, then all objects would fall to the ground with the same acceleration. They would have the same speed after the same amount of time, and if they're dropped together, they would hit the ground at the same exact time.

True
Gravity causes all objects to accelerate at the same rate in a vacuum. In air there is air resistance which can slow some objects down eg a parachute. So, yes, in a vacuum all objects reach the same speed in the same time period.
Yes, gravity affects objects of different sizes in the same way. It depends on the mass of the objects and the distance between them. All objects are attracted to each other by gravity, following the universal law of gravitation.
All objects have gravity. The strength of that gravity is directly proportional to the object's mass. For most objects, their gravity is too weak for us to notice, but Earth has an enormous amount of mass and so has fairly strong gravity.
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.
No. In a vacuum, the weight of an object will be the product their mass, times the gravity. In other words, objects with different masses will have different weights.
They do if the only force acting on them is gravity. If there's any difference in the way two different objects fall, it's the effect of air resistance. If it were only up to gravity alone, then all objects would fall to the ground with the same acceleration. They would have the same speed after the same amount of time, and if they're dropped together, they would hit the ground at the same exact time.
All objects with mass have gravity, so all planets have gravity. However, the strength of gravity depends on the mass of the planet. Earth's gravity is strong enough to hold objects to its surface, which is why we feel it as weight.
Objects of different masses accelerate at the same rate on the moon because the acceleration due to gravity on the moon is constant for all objects, regardless of their mass. This is because the force of gravity is proportional to the mass of the object, so the acceleration is the same for all objects.
Yes it does. All objects have gravity but the amount of gravity depends on the mass of the object.
