What happens when you put the same amount of force on two objects with different masses?

What happens when you put the same amount of force on two objects with different masses?

​The second law shows that if you exert the same force on two objects of different mass, you will get different accelerations (changes in motion). The effect (acceleration) on the smaller mass will be greater (more noticeable).

Do the two forces act on the same objects?

The action and reaction force always act on different objects. Two forces acting on the same object, even if they have the same magnitude and point in opposite direction, never form an action-reaction pair.

Why do 2 objects of different masses fall at the same time?

Because Earth gives everything the exact same acceleration, objects with different masses will still hit the ground at the same time if they are dropped from the same height.

Why do two objects hit the ground at the same time?

Consequently, the acceleration is a = F m = G M R 2, which is independent of the mass of the object. Hence any two objects that are subject only to the force of gravity will fall with the same acceleration and hence they will hit the ground at the same time.

Why do heavier objects have the same acceleration?

Since both the acceleration AND the only force depend on mass, I can write: Heavier things have a greater gravitational force AND heavier things have a lower acceleration. It turns out that these two effects exactly cancel to make falling objects have the same acceleration regardless of mass.

Why do objects with mass fall faster to the ground?

(1) An object which is very massive has a stronger attraction to the earth. Logically, this might make the object fall faster and so reach the ground sooner. (2) An object which is very massive is difficult to get moving. (I.e. it has very high inertia.)

Do heavier objects fall faster than lighter objects?

Heaver objects fall faster. If you drop a heavy and light object together, the heavy one will get to the ground first. This is trick question. I remember in physics that everything falls the same.
