No, the air inside a ball does not affect how fast it falls. The rate at which an object falls is determined by gravity and the air resistance it encounters, not the properties of the air contained within the object.
Everything falls at the same speed. the only variable is drag. For instance a feather & a bowling ball would fall at the same speed in a vacuum, but not through the air.
Yes, the amount of water in a balloon can affect how fast it falls. A balloon filled with more water will be heavier and experience a faster rate of descent due to the increased gravitational pull. The added weight can also influence the air resistance acting on the balloon as it falls.
Yes, the area of a parachute directly affects how fast it falls. A larger parachute will create more air resistance, slowing down its descent, while a smaller parachute will fall faster due to less air resistance.
Yes, the shape of a ball can affect the speed at which it falls. Objects with a more aerodynamic shape, such as a streamlined sphere, will typically fall faster through the air compared to irregularly shaped objects. The streamlined shape reduces air resistance and allows the ball to fall more quickly.
No. The force depends only on the height of the ball and on the mass of the ball. The force due to the earth's gravitional field varies inversly with the distance from the center of the earth to the center of the ball.

Gravitational pull.
The temperature of the ball does not affect the surrounding/outside air, but it does affect the air inside the ball.
Yes it would. Speed will depend on Weight of the ball, Incline angle, Friction, and air pressure.

Because although weight does not have a an affect on how something falls, it does have an affect on wind resistance. So, when a leaf falls it's rather substantial and flat surface area combined with it's light weight causes air to keep it suspended for a longer time. Wind can not keep a bowling ball suspended for very long.
acceleration due to gravity acting on it, which causes it to increase in speed as it falls. The force of air resistance also acts on the ball, gradually slowing it down. Eventually, the ball reaches terminal velocity, where the force of gravity is equal to the force of air resistance and the ball falls at a constant speed.
Yes, however, even air affects how fast something falls. The weight of the water is what causes buoyancy (certain materials to float), and and the resistance of water plays a small role - the weight of the water being the larger role - in what causes other materials to fall slower than they would through air. There are actually certain things that are buoyant in the air, like helium. You will notice that if you let all the air out of your lungs, you will fall down through the water at a certain (very slow) speed. That speed is your terminal velocity through water. The terminal velocity of an average sized human through the air is about 55.6 m/s (200 kph or 124 mph). This speed is obviously much higher than the speed at which something falls through water. So water does affect haw fast something falls. "But wait, certain objects appear to fall through the water at the same speed that they fall through the air!" To explain this, water affects how fast something falls - compared to how fast it falls through the air - depending on its density. The object which you're talking about, is actually falling slower through the water, you just can't tell. We see this property in air too, why do you think a pound of feathers falls much slower than a lead weight?
