An iron ball and a wooden ball of the same radius are released from a height ‘ h ’ in vacuum. The time taken by both of them to reach the ground is

A

zero

B

unequal

C

roughly equal

D

exactly equal

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Since, the time of fall of both balls in vaccum do not depends on the mass of balls. Hence, time taken by both balls will be exactly equal.
