True or false: Given two objects of the same size but of different materials, the heavier (denser) object will fall faster because of air resistance. Gravity is the same.
I say false?? Idk im not sure on this one.

The statement is false. In a vacuum, where there is no air resistance, two objects of the same size but of different materials would fall at the same rate due to gravity. However, in the presence of air resistance, the object with less air resistance (streamlined) will fall faster than the object with more air resistance (bulkier).
Oki! ty :)
