If you had 2 ball of exactly the same size but one weighed 5 pounds and the other weighed 10 pounds, and dropped them off of a 20 foot ladder into some sand, which ball would make a larger and deeper crater and why?

The 10 pound ball would make a larger and deeper crater since it has more density. Greater density creates more impact.
