Ben conducted an experiment where he drops a bowling ball and an apple from a third-story window. Both objects hit the ground at the same time. From this experiment Ben should conclude that

• gravity pulls on both objects, causing them to fall at the same time.

• more air friction is acting on the apple than on the bowling ball
