Gravity affects every object differently but when dropped at the same height and time, they will hit the ground at the same time .
Why acceleration is the same.Force, mass and acceleration are related by f = ma, otherwise written a = f/m.
The gravitional force exerted by the earth is proportional to the mass of the falling object. If f=gm and a=f/m, then the acceleration equals gm/fm. This means that acceleration equals g whatever the mass of the object.

If you removed air resistance would objects fall with constant acceleration?
Yes. Neglecting the effects of air resistance, all objects near the surface of the earth fall with the same constant acceleration, regardless of their mass/weight.
Is it true that given no air resistance all objects near the Earth's surface regardless of size and weight fall with the same acceleration because of gravity?
True
Without air resistance all objects regardless of their size and mass experience the same acceleration of gravity?
True
Given no air resistance all objects near the Earth's surface regardless of size and weight fall with the same acceleration because of gravity?
Yes, that's correct.
Mass is a measure of an objects resistance to?
To acceleration (change in velocity).

Does air resistance increase or decrease the acceleration of a falling leaf from a tree?
Air resistance decreases acceleration of falling objects
Why don't all objects fall to the earth at the same velocity even though the acceleration?
The acceleration is the same for all objects, as long as air resistance is insignificant. After a while, different objects will have different amount of air resistance. Also, even without air resistance, the speed depends not only on the acceleration, but also on how how long the objects are falling.
Mass is a measure of an objects resistance to?
To acceleration (change in velocity).
What is the speed at which the acceleration of a falling objects falls to zero because air resistance balances its weight?
This is known as terminal velocity.
What is the Effect of increasing the object's mass of the acceleration due to gravity?
On earth, the mass of an object has no effect whatsoever on its acceleration due to the force of gravity. All objects fall with the same acceleration, regardless of their mass. Any observed difference is due entirely to air resistance.
Without air resistance all objects regardless of their size and mass exp erience the same acceleration of gravity is it true or false?
It's true, it's true! Galileo proved it.
How air resistance affect the acceleration of falling objects?
Air resistance causes friction and slows an object.
Why is the acceleration is faster in small objects than in large objects?
The difference is due to inertia. Inertia is the resistance to a change in motion (acceleration). A more massive object will have greater inertia, and therefore a greater resistance to a change in motion, resulting in a slower acceleration. A less massive object has lower inertia, and therefore less of a resistance to a change in motion, resulting in a faster acceleration.
