Ask a child to drop a piece of chalk from terrace, Start the stop clock as soon as the child drops it. Put off the clock as soon as the chalk touches the ground, note down the time taken , Repeat the same expt with a stone,& calculate the time, Time taken will be same in both the cases. Inference : All bodies accelerate equally irrespective of their mass.
