Answer:

A. Both spheres land at the same time.

Explanation:

The horizontal motion doesn't affect the vertical motion.  Since the two spheres have the same initial vertical velocity and same initial height, they land at the same time.

Answer:

A. Both spheres land at the same time.

Explanation:

If air resistance and friction are ignored, then both spheres land at the same time. Falling objects fall toward the center of the Earth with the same constant acceleration, independent of their mass, when they are defined to be in free-fall. For an object to be in free-fall, it has to be in a situation in which both air resistance and friction are considered negligible. This is true regardless of the direction of the fall.
