Two golf balls with the same mass were hit at the same time. Golf ball A went a shorter distance than golf ball B. What could be a reason that this happened?

Answer:

Golf ball A was hit with a weaker force

Step-by-step explanation:

Golf ball B went a larger distance than golf ball A, so we could think friction affected golf ball A rather than golf ball B. That is why the first two choices are wrong.

The strongest forced applied made golf ball B go further
