nah I am good, just wanted to use the word minutiae...thanks for the help

isnt the point to help me w/ my question, not to argue over senseless minutiae in order to prove ur point?? ...(coming from a high school junior)

oh sweet thank you all for the help

alright I am going to bed in 5 minutes and this is due tommrow: so, they will arrive at the same time bc they are both affected by the gravitational constant?

So, 2 objects dropped at the same time would hit the ground at the same time, since the force being exerted on the objects is the same.

ooh so the mass of the objects would not affect their acceleration, and therefore they would reach the ground at the saem height, correct?... but that doesn't seem right to me, since a feather would take longer than a bowling ball, or does that have to do w/ weight?

multiply the 2 masses, then divide by the distance squared

Gravity, right? but I am just unsure of whether more mass constitutes greater acceleration...

[SOLVED] Newton Open Ended Question Homework Statement According to Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation, the force exerted by the Earth on an object is directly proportional to the objects mass According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, the acceleration of an object is directly...
