I claim that the baseball and the softball fell around the same rate.

Finally, after doing three tests for each ball the baseball's average was 43.7 feet, and the softball's average was 43.6 feet. In checking with the experts in Discovery Works I learned that Newton's third law says that everything with the same and opposite masses fall at the same rate. If gravity didn't pull down on the balls, the balls would stay in motion until it dropped from loss of speed. Our experiment connects with Newton's third law of motion because the balls have different masses and they fell around the same distance.
