For 1.6 seconds at a velocity of 6.0 centimeters per second toward its food, which was 53 centimeters away. during this time, how far did the tortoise move?

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.
