Thought Question: Tiffany stands at the edge of a cliff while holding two balls. She throws ball #1 straight up at a certain velocity and drops ball #2 at exactly the same time. You can neglect air resistance.

Which ball is in the air for the longest time? WHY?

Which ball has a greater velocity as it hits the ground? WHY?

I do not understand how to do thank you for help if you can

the cliff doesnt matter think dropping a ball at head level around 6 feet and it has a force of 1 unit but you throw it 12 feet up and it falls with a force of 2 units aslong as the Coriolis effect isnt there so ball 1 has more force and it also has more air time as it goes up a certain distance falls back down from a greater height as it has been thrown straight up
