Answer:
The lighter body will reach more height.
Explanation:
As we know, F = m x a (m is mass, a is acceleration)
Since the balls are thrown upward, they experience a downward force due to gravitation.
a = g (g is gravitational force of attraction, constant)
F = m x g
F ∝ m (F stands for the downward force experienced by the ball)
i.e lighter ball experiences less downward force and heavier ball experiences more downward force.
