the bigger the size of an object, the more friction it'll cause on its surface to slow it down. Say an astroid the size of a tennis ball weights ten pounds, and next to it is an astroid the size of a basket ball also weighing ten pounds. The tennis ball one would dart through the same amount of distance at a much faster speed cause the basket ball would slow down because of friction. But if the basket ball is heavier, it inertia and momentum will keep it going faster.

Quite a variety of effects. A larger object is likely heavier, thus increasing the force of friction on it. It would also likely have greater surface area, increasing air resistance. In short, the object would go slower.
Note that it would only be true if something about its size affected the forces acting on it. A bowling ball and an apple would drop at the same rate.

In space there is no atmosphere to cause fricton so size doesnt matter. It is mass not size that affects speed. More mass more energy to move, slow, or change direction.
In an atmosphere, then size and confiquration make a diference, a wing VS a box

speed bag education desires you to throw quicker, shorter and extra dominant punches than you could on a heavy bag. those are available interior the 11 x 8 inches to fourteen x 9 inches selection are elective for beginners. For experts 9 x 6 to ten x 7 use this length luggage. It doesn’t impact your speed.

Imagine the following objects falling over: a matchstick, a broomstick, a tree.

The smaller = the more aerodynamic. It's faster.

gravity and if there is no gravity it is aerodynamics that help the bigger the object usually less aerodynamic and the smaller the object the more aerodynamic

In track really thin people do better in long-distance. In short-distance, more muscular people do better.
