b) The 0.5lb notebook would hit the floor last

c) The 2.5lb notebook would hit the floor first

d) All notebooks would fall at the same time

    D, all notebooks would hit the floor at the same time. The time it takes to hit the floor is independent of their weight, but rather dependent on the acceleration of gravity. Since gravity is constant, they will all hit the floor at the same time.

    the correct answer would be D because they all have the same gravitational pull
