Two object of different masses falling freely near the surface of moon would

A

have same velocity at any instant

B

have different acceleration

C

experience forces of same magnitude

D

undergo a change in their inertia

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Two object of different masses falling freely near the surface of moon will have same velocities at any instant. This is because for both,`u=0,a=g,v=u+at=0+g t=g t=`same for both.
