Assertion: Two bodies of masses M and m(...

Assertion: Two bodies of masses `M` and `m(M gt m)` are allowed to fall from the same height if the air resistance for each be the same then both the bodies will reach the earth simultaneously.
Reason: For same air resistance, acceleration of both the bodies will be same.
