A piece of paper and a coin both having the same mass are dropped from the `10^(th)` floor of building. The piece of paper would take more time to reach the ground because

Options

A. gravitational pull on the paper is less than the coin.
B. buoyant force on the piece of paper is more than that on the coin.
C. buoyant force on the coin is more and acts in the downward direction.
D. the piece of paper takes a longer path to reach the ground.

Answer

B

Explanation

The piece of paper would take more time to reach the ground than a coin because buoyan force on the piece of paper is more than that on the com. If piece of paper and coin having the same mass are droped from the same height in vacuum then both will take the same time to reach the ground.
