Question

. How do we know that with falling objects (ignoring air resistance) that heavier objects are subjected to a greater gravitational force?

Answer 1

We don't, because it doesn't.

Answer 2

why?

Answer 3

this is my next question though... based off this one: How do we know that there is something compensating for this difference in force that gravity exerts on falling objects?

Answer 4

Okay, so if you throw a heavy object and a light object into the air, they would fall down at the same time. It's true! I tried it! I have no idea for the second question though.
