Question

If you drop an object, object 1 and also throw an object, object 2 to the right horizontally, at what time will they hit the ground with respect to each other?

A:Object 1 hits the ground faster than object 2
B:Object 2 hits the ground faster than object 1
C:They hit the ground at the same time
D: They do not hit the ground

Answer 1

C: They hit the ground at the same time.

Due to gravity constantly pulling both the objects, since gravity only acts in the vertical direction, both the objects will hit the ground at the same time as long as you don't give an extra force dropping them.
