Because gravity pulls the masses down at the same rate.
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.
Gravity causes all objects to fall to earth at the same time. (some objects do not like paper and yarn because of air resistance. but if you block the air resistance by placing it on a book and dropping, it will fall at the same time. Or if you reduce surface area) Gravity causes all objects to fall with an acceleration of 9.8m/s*2
In the absence of air resistance, heavy objects and light objects fall to the ground at the same rate. This is because all objects experience the same acceleration due to gravity, regardless of their mass. However, factors like air resistance can affect the rate at which objects fall.
Yes. Neglecting the effects of air resistance, ALL objects fall with the same acceleration near the surface of the earth, meaning that any two objects dropped at the same time will have the same velocity after the same time interval.
On Earth, all massive objects are subject to the same gravitational acceleration - although air resistance affects different objects differently, so a feather accelerates more slowly than a hammer. But, as was famously demonstrated on the Moon, in a vacuum, both will fall in exactly the same time.

With the same acceleration.
Galileo discovered that all objects fall at the same rate regardless of their weight, disproving the common belief at the time that heavier objects fall faster than lighter ones.

They don't. All objects fall at the same rate of speed because of weight.
All objects fall towards the center of the Earth due to gravity. The rate at which objects fall is determined by their mass and the gravitational force acting upon them. In the absence of air resistance, all objects would fall at the same rate regardless of their mass.
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.
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.
In a vacuum or free-fall environment, all objects fall at the same rate due to the lack of air resistance. This is because the force of gravity acts on all objects equally, causing them to accelerate towards the center of the gravitational field at the same rate. This principle is known as the equivalence principle, as outlined in Einstein's theory of general relativity.
