  If the small and big stones are dropped from the roof of a house simultaneously, they will reach the ground at the same time. Why?  

Answer:

                  The acceleration due to gravity does not depend upon the mass of the stone or body. Both the bodies fall with the same acceleration towards the surface of the earth. Thus a big stone will fall with the same acceleration as a small stone. So, both the stones will reach the ground at the same time when dropped simultaneously.
