All objects fall at the same rate if there is no air resistance true or false

1 answer

True. In a vacuum, where there is no air resistance, all objects fall at the same rate regardless of their mass. This principle was famously demonstrated by Galileo and is a fundamental concept in physics. The rate of acceleration due to gravity is approximately 9.81 m/s² for all objects near the surface of the Earth, assuming no other forces act on them.
