Basically, gravity accelerates both at the same rate.
In a vacuum, where there is no air resistance, both a feather and a hammer would fall and hit the ground at the same time due to gravity affecting them equally. However, in the presence of air, the feather experiences more air resistance than the hammer, causing it to fall slower.
In a vacuum, both a brick and a feather would fall at the same rate and touch the ground at the same time because there is no air resistance to slow them down. This is because in a vacuum, all objects fall at the same rate regardless of their masses.
Both the feather and the ball will reach the ground at the same time in a vacuum due to the acceleration due to gravity being constant for all objects. However, in the presence of air resistance, the feather will take longer to reach the ground compared to the ball due to its larger surface area and lighter weight.
Both the feather and the hammer will hit the ground at the same time when dropped from the same height in a vacuum. This is due to the principle of gravity, which accelerates all objects at the same rate regardless of their mass.
No, a feather and a nail would not reach the ground at the same time if dropped at the same height in a vacuum. This is because the feather experiences more air resistance, slowing its fall compared to the nail which falls faster due to its higher mass.

In a vacuum they would reach the ground at the same time (assuming they are released at the same time and from the same height). When not in a vacuum, however, air resistance is acting on both items - and so the paperclip would touch the ground first.

They won't. Two nearly identical objects (equal-sized cubes for example) will land at the same time as long as they are heavy enough to overcome wind resistance. If you have a ten-pound ball and a twenty-pound ball, they will hit the ground at the same time. However, if you had a ball weighing less than an ounce and one weighing a pound, of course they will not hit the ground at the same time: the ball weighing less than an ounce wouldn't fall - it would be affected enough by wind resistance to slow down. If there was no air, the feather and the rock will hit the ground at the same time. Factoid.
The mass is irrelevant, the only factor that effects how fast anything falls on earth is air resistance. The feathers obviously have more air resistance than the rocks and so the rocks will fall faster. If this was done in a vacuum however one gram of feathers would fall at the same rate as a tone of rocks.
It works in a vacuum. It won't work on Earth due to air pressure slowing the dropping feather due to friction.
In the absence of air resistance, both the penny and feather will fall at the same rate and hit the ground at the same time, regardless of their mass. This is because gravity accelerates all objects at the same rate in a vacuum.
In a vacuum, both the feather and the stone would fall at the same rate due to the absence of air resistance. This is known as the principle of equivalence, where all objects fall at the same rate regardless of their mass.
