Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The lead-filled ball will reach the ground first because it has a greater mass, which means it will experience a greater gravitational force and less air resistance relative to its weight compared to the regular ball. This results in a higher terminal velocity for the lead-filled ball, allowing it to fall faster through the air.
