Two bodies of masses M and m are allowed to fall from the same height . If air resistance for each body be same , will the two bodies reach the ground simultaneously ?

Answer» Let (F) be thet air resistance on each body. Then acceleration of the body of mass(M) is ltbRgt ` a_1 = (Mg -F)/M =g - F/M`
The accleration of the body of mass (M) is ` `a_2 = ( mg -F)/m = g F/M`
As, ` Mgtm., so a_1 gta_2`. Therefore, the body of mass (M) ( i.e. heavier body ) will reahc ground first, .
