Yes - but only if you can ignore air resistance, that is, if the objects fall for a sufficiently short time, and have a sufficiently high mass, and sufficiently small surface area, so that air resistance becomes insignificant.

What happens different mass fall from same height?

Objects with different masses will fall to the ground at the same rate in the absence of air resistance, due to gravity being a constant force regardless of mass. However, objects with different masses will experience different forces due to inertia, momentum, and friction when they reach the ground.


How long does it take to reach terminal velocity when falling from a height?

Terminal velocity is typically reached within 10-12 seconds when falling from a height, depending on factors such as air resistance and the height of the fall.


A solid sphere solid cylinder and hollow solid cylinder having same mass fall from incline surface which will reach ground in least time?

solid sphere solid sphere if air resistance is cosidered (which should be considered if the height from which it falls is high)....if the air resistance is not considered all three fall at the same time irrespective of mass(galileo is famous for this law----all the bodies fall same distances irrespective of their masses--which means a feather and a stone kept in vaccum tude fall at the same time o the ground)


Does the size of an object affect the time of its free fall?

No, the size of an object does not affect the time of its free fall. In a vacuum, all objects fall at the same rate regardless of their size or mass, as described by the principle of equivalence in the theory of general relativity. This means that in the absence of air resistance, objects of different sizes will reach the ground at the same time when dropped from the same height.


The arrows are made of different materials so they have different masses and different speeds as they leave the bow. Which arrow has the greatest maximum height?

Ignoring air resistance, and assuming that all of the arrows are aimed in the same direction, the one that leaves the bow with the greatest speed reaches the greatest height, regardless of their masses.

How many stories does it take to reach a fatal fall?

The number of stories it takes to reach a fatal fall can vary depending on the height of each story, but typically a fall from a height of around 4 stories or higher can be fatal.


Will two free fall bodies with different initial speeds reach ground together?

No. The one with higher initial speed will hit the ground first if they are both thrown straight down.


What happens different mass fall from same height?

Objects with different masses will fall to the ground at the same rate in the absence of air resistance, due to gravity being a constant force regardless of mass. However, objects with different masses will experience different forces due to inertia, momentum, and friction when they reach the ground.


Does different speed of two objects effect the time it takes to reach the ground?

If thrown horizontal from same height the faster object will travel farther horizontally, but time to fall is the same. If thrown straight up, the faster object will take longer to fall

Two bodies of different masses are allowed to fall freely how do their acceleration vary?

Mass doesn't effect how fast something falls, it is their size. This is related to air resistance. The larger the bodies, the slower they fall. ( This is what i remember from my science lesson)


What happens when you release a ball from a height at rest?

It will fall with increasing velocity due to gravity and reach the peak velocity just before hitting the ground.

Can a cat survive a fall from any height?

Cats have a unique ability to survive falls from high places due to their flexible bodies and instinctual righting reflex. However, there is no guarantee of survival from any height as injuries can still occur.


Will coins of different sizes dropped from the same height fall at the same time?

In a vacuum, they will fall together. Air resistance might have a minor affect on the results.


How fast Does it take to reach maximum speed in a free fall?

Terminal velocity is dictated by the gravitational attraction between the bodies, intermediary fluid properties, and drag coefficient.
