Whichever one you drop first will hit the ground first. If you drop them simultaneously, and they don't interfere with each other on the way down, then they will hit the ground simultaneously.

Answer:

Explanation:

The gravitational force between any two objects is affected by the masses of the objects and the distance between them. The greater the masses of the objects are, the stronger the gravitational force is.

Since all four of the satellites are the same distance from the Earth's surface, only their masses affect the strength of the gravitational force. At 903 kilograms, satellite D has the greatest mass, so the gravitational force pulling it toward the Earth is the greatest.
