Yes and no. When it 'falls' out of a cannon/musket, the solid steel ball will fall at an significantly speedier rate than that of a conventional solid steel ball not emerging from a cannon/musket housing. But sometimes the other solid steel ball will drop slightly faster than the solid steel ball as well. No one knows why really. It's a mystery. :-)

Would a solid rubber ball drop faster than a solid steel ball?
The simple answer is no. If you look at the equation of motion for a falling object, you can see that it doesn't depend on the weight of the objest. All objects fall with the same acceleration regardless of their size or shape.Keep in mind though that this neglects air friction. If you consider air friction, then the steel ball would fall faster since it is denser. In other words, the lighter rubber ball would get slowed down by the air more. This is unlikely to have much effect if you drop the two balls a small distance; however, if you dropped them out of an airplane the steel ball would likely land much sooner than the rubber ball.
Would a steel ball in Hawaii travel faster through water at 40 degrees or 25 degrees?
40 degrees
Which meterial using computer mouse ball?
The ball inside older mice - was either solid rubber - or a steel ball with a rubber coating.
How do you made computer mouse ball?
The ball inside older mice - was made of a solid steel ball coated in a thick layer of rubber.
A tennis ball and a solid steel ball the same size are dropped at the same time which ball has the greater force acting on it?
If both balls are exactly the same size, and one having larger mass, the 300g ball will hit the ground first. This is easy to relate to a hammer and a large feather, even if they have the same surface area the hammer having a larger mass has a larger terminal velocity.
Is ball a gas?
No. A ball would generally be solid.
Example of solid in solid solution?
Brass : made of zinc in copper Steel: made of carbon in iron
What is a steel ball?
A steel ball is a ball, or sphere, made of steel. An example would be a ball bearing, and the whole world runs on bearings, many of which are of the ball bearing variety.
When the diameter of ball mill is above 2500mm some steel ball would be added so what the ball dimension would be?
The steel ball with model of Ø120㎜、Ø100㎜、Ø80㎜ should be added。
What is a Steele?

If you drop a wooden ball or a steel ball or a plastic ball from the sky which one would cause more damage?
assuming they are the same size/shape, the steel ball would because it has more mass and is more dense.
Which moves faster 6-kg ball or 4-kg ball?
For a given amount of energy 4 kg ball would move faster compared to 6 kg ball
