Which ball has a greater acceleration as it drops toward the ground, and why? View Available Hint(s)for Part A Ball 2, because it is heavier, and heavier objects experience a greater force due to gravity. Ball 1, because it is lighter, and lighter objects are easier to accelerate due to less inertia. Ball 1 and Ball 2 have equal acceleration. Part B Which ball do you predict will reach the ground first? View Available Hint(s)for Part B Both Ball 1 and Ball 2 will reach the ground at the same time. Ball 2, because it is heavier and is thus attracted by Earth more strongly than Ball 1. Ball 1, because it is lighter and thus travels faster than Ball 2. Part C Which ball will be traveling faster when it hits the ground? View Available Hint(s)for Part C Ball 1 and Ball 2 will be traveling equally fast when they hit the ground. Ball 1, because it is lighter and thus travels faster than Ball 2. Ball 2, because it is heavier and is thus attracted by Earth more strongly than Ball 1
