If you drop two objects of the same weight which will land first?

If you drop two objects in a tube that has no air in it, they'll both land at the same time, and it doesn't matter what they weigh.

∙ 14y agoda one which is smaller in size . . .bcoz small objects r ready to reach da ground faster dan bigger objects . . newtons law . .

∙ 13y agoShouldn't matter what they are, pound of feathers/pound of bricks sort of thing. Identical weights dropped from identical height under identical conditions...splat! Same time.

Why does weight of the object change its falling speed?
it dosent, because if you drop 2 objects at the same mass and weight from really high up then they will land at the same time. This is because the weight of the object doesnt matter, only the force of gravity.
When two objects of the same mass drop from different heights do they land at the same time?
No
Disregarding air resistance objects fall at constant?
What you mean is, "Disregarding air resistance, do objects fall at the same rate?" or something similar. In the absence of atmosphere, all objects free fall at the same rate. So if you drop a feather and a 10 lb weight from identical heights in perfect vacuum (or vacume depending on which spelling you prefer) they will land at the same time.
When dropping objects with different masses which object will land first?
they fall at the same rate regardless of their mass Maryann Saba
There is no air on the moon If a bowling ball a feather and a large empty box were dropped from the same height on the moon at the same time which would land first?
they would each hit at precisly the same time because there is no gravity on the moon, therefore, nothing would bring down the objects according to weight.

If you're sitting on a branch and you drop a large heavy rock and a small pebble what will happen?
If you drop them at the same time, they will land at the same time. Also the branch will move up as the weight is released and will oscillate depending on how heavy the objects were. Be carefull, you might fall from the sudden motion.
When a stone and metalblock having same weight is thrown from a plane which will reach first?
They both will fall down at equal speed and will land equally. Test it: Drop a pencil and a rock from your house. They will fall equally. That would happen in a vacuum, however in our atmosphere falling objects encounter resistance from the air. Each object, depending upon shape and form will reach a terminal velocity. Objects that are more aerodynamic (smooth and of regular shape) will fall faster than rough and irregularly shaped objects of the same mass (weight.)
Two objects with different weights are dropped at the same time which lands first?
In a vacuum, they always land at the same time. In air, it's not so much the weight but the air resistance. If the shape and density are about the same, then the difference in weight doesn't make any difference.
If i drop a thousand pound ball and a ten pound ball in a vacuum which one will land first?
They would land at the same time.

Do heavy objects fall before lighter objects?
In a vacuum all objects fall at the same rate. In air the shape and density of an object can effect its rate due to air resistance. However, a bowling ball and a basket ball would fall at virtually the same rate. A simple experiment: Get a pen and piece of paper. Hold them both out in front of you and drop them. Which lands first? Now crumple the paper up into a ball as tight as you can. Drop them both again. Did they both land at the same time? (Simple Answer) No, they don`t.
You drop a penny from a height of 16 feet After how many seconds does the penny land on the ground?
1 second, since all objects fall at 16 feet per second.
What was the first artificial object to reach the moon?
Russian flags were the first man made objects to land on the moon but the Klangers lived there for years apparently
How much would you weigh on the Kuiper Belt?
You would not have any particular weight "on" the Kuiper belt because it is not an object you can land on. The Kuiper belt is a region of the solar system that contains a collection of icy objects. You could potentially land on some of these objects, but you weight on them would vary depending on their size and mass. Some are too small to have noticeable gravity. The most massive of them, Eris, has about 8.4% of Earth's gravity.
If a ton of bricks and a ton of feathers were wrapped up the same witch would land first?
assuming wrapping them up allows us to neglect air resistance, both will land on the ground at the same time. The acceleration due to gravity is the same for all objects (9.8 m/s2) no matter their size and weight.
