O The bowling ball will fall at a slower speed because its mass means it will have more air resistance.

The soccer ball will fall slower because it will be affected by air resistance.

Answer:

Third option

Step-by-step explanation:

IF you ignore air resistance, they will fall at the same rate due to the effect of gravity being the same on both ....BUT the third option seems to be correct as air friction is taken into account.... the bowling ball will be affected by air resistance too, bul less so..
