Why don't you try it since it's your science experiment?

The egg will fall a little later than the tennis ball, as the distance is slightly more. Both will have the same acceleration.
If you drop them together, both will hit the ground at the same time.

in a perfect world.....the tennis ball & egg hit at the same time...the tennis ball bounces & the egg is propelled back into the air taking all the energy fron the ball which stays on the ground...

the ball is more forgiving that the egg...
when they land the egg will bounce up in the air unbroken and then fall to its death.
poor egg..
i've seen this done

because of wind and other element they will shift and based on their mass gravity will cause one to fall faster than the other. In fact, the close to the Earth they are, the faster the rate of decline.

they will hit the ground at the same time. all objects fall with an acceleration of 9.8 meters per second^2.
