Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

It is True .

The force between the earth and any object is given by


F = G (M m)/(r^(2))

Where, M is the mass of earth and m be the mass of body

The value of acceleration due to gravity is

g = F / m


g = G (M)/(r^(2))

The value of acceleration due to gravity is independent to m. So, all the bodies experience the same acceleration of gravity.
