Since they have same velocity an the air exerts a constant and equal force of resistance so the momentum gained by object A will be more than that of B due to more mass and hence A will go higher than B

As acceleration is f/m , greater mass will have less acceleration .
Thus resistive acceleration on body a would be less than body b and height will be given as u^2/2(g+a) . So less the a more the height . Therefore body a will have more height than b
