Question

Rahul drops an iron ball from a certain height at the poles and records the time

taken by it to hit the ground. He drops the same iron ball at the equator from the

same height and records the time again. Does the iron ball take the same time

duration to hit the ground at both the locations? Justify your answer.


Fast do it

Answer 1

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

because galileo proved that by dropping two iron balls of different weights from the leaning tower of pisa .

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

The acceleration due to gravity is more at the poles than at the equator. The time taken for a iron ball is less if the acceleration due to gravity is more when the initial velocities and the distance travelled are the same. So, when dropped from the same height a iron ball reaches the ground quicker at the poles than at the equator.
