Why do objects with similar surface area on Earth appear to fall at exactly the same rate (an acceleration of 9.8 m/s 2
)?(1 point)

All objects, regardless of their mass, are attracted to Earth exactly the same amount.

The mass of the Earth is so immensely huge compared to the mass of any of the objects humans can measure falling, so we are unable to observe the infanitesimal difference in acceleration.

The Earth's core is denser than the surface meaning most of the gravitational attraction comes from the core.

All objects on Earth experience exactly the same amount of air resistance.

Thats not correct
I apologize for the error. The correct answer is:
