In an evacuated environment, i.e. in the total absence of air, a leaf and an elephant released
from the same height at the same time fall with the same acceleration, acquire the same velocity
at any instant during their fall, and end their respective experiences by encountering the ground
at precisely the same time.

Why does newton accelerate more than the elephant?

Newton accelerates more than the elephant because acceleration is determined by the force applied relative to mass, according to Newton's second law of motion (F=ma). If Newton exerts a greater force relative to his mass compared to the elephant, he will experience a higher acceleration. Additionally, because the elephant has a much larger mass, it requires a significantly greater force to achieve the same acceleration as Newton.

Why is the elephant heavier than the mouse?

On both it has the same amount of gravity but it has a different amount of force. The elephant might weighmore than the cat but they both have the exact same amount of gravity, or as others say it, acceleration. So the answer would be that it pull down on both of them with an equal amount of force.

A brick and an elephant are in free fall. what is common in their motion?

Both the brick and the elephant experience acceleration due to gravity at the same rate, regardless of their mass or size. This means they will fall at the same speed in a vacuum.


Newton's 2nd law examples?

Imagine you are standing below a taaaaaaall building. Now imagine someone has thrown down an elephant and a bag of salt at different heights. The bag of salt was tossed out at the tallest point on the building. The elephant was tossed out only 1 foot from the ground. The elephant has a mass of about 2 tons (4000pounds). The bag of salt has a mass of about 1 kilogram. The elephant has an acceleration (lets say) 1 meter per second squared. The penny has (once its at the bottom) has an acceleration of (lets say) 2000 meters per second squared. The elephant will have a force of about 1800 Newtons. The bag of salt will have a force of about 2000 Newtons. The bag of salt actually has more force than the elephant because it has a higher acceleration. Newton's 2nd law depends on the combination of mass and acceleration.
