Sagot :

Answer:

c. the red and green ball will hit the ground at the same time

Explanation:

if two objects are the same size but one is heavier, the heavier one has greater density than the lighter object. Therefore, when both objects are dropped from the same height and at the same time, the heavier object should hit the ground before the lighter one.
