Why acceleration due to gravity does not depend on mass?

All objects fall at the same rate because gravity pulls them equally, no matter how heavy they are.

Imagine you and your friend both jump off a small slide at the same time, one of you is holding a big, heavy backpack, and the other isn’t. Even though you’re carrying something heavier, you both hit the ground at almost the same time. That’s because gravity pulls on both of you just as hard.

Think of gravity like a strong, invisible hand. This hand pushes down on everything, big things, small things, heavy things, light things. It doesn’t care how much something weighs; it always gives the same push to everything.

So when two objects fall, they both get the same "push" from gravity, even if one is heavier than the other. That’s why a feather and a rock can fall together, they’re both being pulled by gravity, just like you and your friend on the slide!

It’s not magic, it's how gravity works!
