A science class is conducting an investigation to see how gravity affects objects of different masses. They drop three balls from the same height. They time how long it takes the balls to hit the ground. What are the students comparing?

(1 point)
• the gravitational attraction of each ball
• the height from which each ball is dropped
• the time it takes for each ball to fall
• the mass of each ball

The students are comparing the time it takes for each ball to fall.
