The force due to gravity is twice as great on a 2 kg. rock
as it is on a 1 kg rock. Why doesn’t the 2 kg. rock have
a greater free-fall acceleration?
A greater force acts on the heavier rock, but the
heavier rock also has greater mass, so the acceleration
is the same. Free-fall acceleration is independent of
mass.
