For the first question, the best response is:

**He would decide what object he wanted to investigate, identify resources that could provide needed information, and figure out what steps to take.**

This approach allows the student to engage in the scientific method, formulate a hypothesis, and plan a structured investigation to explore the effects of gravity on different masses.

For the second question, the best response is:

**He would test objects with different masses but the same shape.**

This would help isolate the variable of mass while keeping shape (and therefore air resistance) constant, allowing a clearer investigation into the effects of gravity on different masses.
