When two skydivers jump from a plane, gravity pulls them down at the same rate, no matter their mass. This means that both skydivers feel the same force pulling them towards the ground. However, air resistance, which is the wind pushing against them as they fall, affects them differently. The heavier skydiver might fall a little faster because air resistance has less of an effect on them compared to the lighter skydiver.
Two skydivers of different masses jump from a plane. In three to five sentences, explain how their falls compare, including the effects of gravity, mass, and air resistance.(4 points) make this 4 sentences. make it sound like a 6th grader and do NOT plagiarize
