    Answer: time is the same

    Explanation: the distance (H) is the same in each case.

    we drop the balls, no drag force using basic kimnematics

    y = gt*t/2, yo=0, vo=0, y=H, so : t = sqrt (2H/g)

    comment: if distance H starts to grow ... we could begin to note a difference because of gravity g is smaller as we go up
