Answer:

Statement 1: All balls hit the ground at the same time

Step-by-step explanation:

When there is no resistance of air, the acceleration due to gravity experienced by all the bodies are same. So for falling bodies, neglecting the air resistance, the falling object will be weightless and therefore all the objects will hit the ground at the same time when there is nor air resistance and the objects are considered to be falling in vacuum.
