Gravitational force acts on all objects in proportion to their masses. Why then, a heavy object does not fall faster than a light object?

What are the differences between the mass of an object and its weight?

An object of mass 40 kg is raised to a height of 5 m above the ground. What is its potential energy? If the object is allowed to fall, find its kinetic energy when it is half-way down.
