a student places a 10 g coin on a disk at a point 0.02 m from the center of the disk. the student rotates the disk with a steadily increasing speed. at what speed will the coin start to slide off the disk if the coefficient of static friction between the coin and the disk is 0.47?

when two balls of the different masses are dropped from equal height, they reach the ground at the same time .this is because they experience the same acceleration.

the acceleration is independent of mass.

thus when they are dropped they will always maintain the same velocity and travel the same distance (neglect air resistance of course) at the same time.
