How does mass effect acceleration?

If two balls of different mass, same size, go down a ramp, which will go down faster?
(Preferable a baseball and a tennis ball!)

Answer:

heavier rolling objects have a statistically faster clear time for a given inclined plane in comparison to lighter rolling objects. In addition, heavier objects will be more resistant to the effects of air resistance and rolling resistance.
