...same time? My 2nd grade kid had a test.
Marco is holding two toys.The truck is heavier than the car.Suppose Marco drops both toys at the same time.In what order will they hit the ground?
A. car first
B.truck first
C.at the same time
D.they will not fall
My kid chose the answer B. I agree too.
But teacher said," Choice C is correct. The objects have the same gravity. When you drop two objects at the same time that weight different amounts, they will hit the ground at the same time. The lighter object will catch up to the heavier object. The weight of the objects does not matter.
Is teacher right?
