Gravity accelerates everything equally, lead or iron, a few ounces or many tons. Surprisingly perhaps (depends on what you know), without air resistence, anything thrown vertically upwards will come down and hit the ground with the same speed. The faster the initial speed. The higher it goes before starting downwards and therefore the longer the gravity has to accelerate it: it all works out. In practice, air resistance will slow it down. -Anil
