The best way for the student to improve the investigation, based on the provided options, is by dropping the balls from the same height. This allows for a controlled experiment where the only variable affecting the outcome is the mass of the balls. Keeping the drop height constant ensures any differences in the results can be attributed to the masses of the balls, thereby providing clearer insights into the effect of gravity on objects of different masses.
