Question

A coin and a small piece of paper (size equal to the coin) are dropped

from the same height and at same time. The coin reaches the ground first.

Why?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

When a coin and a piece of paper is dropped simultaneously from the same height , coin will touch the ground first because it has more mass than the piece of paper . so earth will exert more gravity force on it . But when both are dropped in vacuum Both will fall at the same rate because there is no gravity.

Answer 2

Answer:

The coin will reach the ground first because iT has more weight than the paper and hence it gets attracted to gravity faster than the paper.
