falling objects

Two identical objects were dropped down from the same point on a high tower under gravity with one second time difference. Do they keep the same difference of distance between them three seconds later?
And how to explain the answer.

While we can't do your homework for you, we can point you in the right direction.

Hint: Acceleration due to gravity. Determine how far apart they are after 1 second, then after 3 seconds.
