it affects how far it can fly
Gravitational force
Some forcess that affect the path of the ball is gravity which pushes the ball down to earth and wind could effect the path by blowing the ball a certain direction.
yes
Yes
No this is simply to hold the ball together, it does not affect the distance the ball travels in any way.
the distance it travels before falling to the ground
The way the batter is holding the bat and/or standing affects a hit ball to go foul, right, or left. Also, how strong the batter is and the weather affects the hit ball.
In baseball, a hit ball that travels along the ground, as opposed to a fly ball that travels through the air.
sound travels fastest in cold
The club may strike the ball in such a way as to induce it to spin. This affects the aerodynamics of the ball, and can cause its path to curve.
It works the same way it does on Earth. The momentum of the club is transferred to the golf ball and it travels. And it isn't slowed down by the friction of air.
The way a golf ball bounces definitely affects the distance that it will travel. There are different weights and types of golf balls for this reason.
The ball speeds up as it travels to the ground as gravity pulls it down to make it go fast.

They will drop at the same speed, the only way one could beat the other is if you were to increase the speed it travels by giving it an extra push..
