Question

Two bodies of different masses are falling freely near the surface of the earth. They:
(A) have the same velocity at any instant
(B) move with different accelerations.
(C) experience forces of the same magnitude
(D) undergo a change in their inertia.

Answer 1

Explanation:

(C),experiences forces of same magnitude

Answer 2

Dear Student,

◆ Answer -

(A) have the same velocity at any instant

● Explanation -

• When two bodies of different masses are free-falling, acceleration due to gravity acting on both bodies will be same.
• Both objects have started motion at rest and have same acceleration, they will have the same velocity at any instant of their fall.
• Force acting on the bodies will vary because it depends on the mass of objects.

Thanks dear. Hope this helps you..
