Responses

The potential energy of both are equal.
The potential energy of both are equal.

The potential energy of the one with the most mass is greater than the other.
The potential energy of the one with the most mass is greater than the other.

Ignoring air resistance and assuming they have the same mass, the kinetic energy of both is equal right before impact with the ground.
