Question

If heavier bodies are attracted more strongly by the earth why dont they fall faster than the lighter bodies

Answer 1

Ye the force between heavier bodies and Earth is greater than the force between lighter one and Earth.

But it's acceleration = F/m which causes both acceleration depends upon this,

F= Gme m/ Re^2
ma = Gme m/ Re^2
a= Gme / Re^2

Hence acceleration of free falling body not depend on their mass.

Hope it's helpful to u.

Answer 2

our atmospheric pressure works as as resistance and R is directly proportional to area means more area more resistance. this leads to lessening of velocity. resulting in slower falling of object
