Would air and mass affect falling objects? When you drop a plastic ball and a metal ball from the same height af the same time, the balls fall to the ground. The force that acts on the objects is gravity. There is difference in their falling speed between the two balls. The ball with the greater mass falls at a greater speed. You concluded that heavy objects fall faster than lighter ones. Learning Task 2: Drop two pieces of paper from the same height, one flat and one crumpled up in a ball. Which piece of paper falls faster? Why
