On a planet/celestial body with gravity, the acceleration of gravity is the same for everything.  Therefore, all three options are correct.

Hope this helps!

Explanation:

When an object is fallen from certain height under the action of gravity, the object is said to be moving freely. The value of acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth is 9.8 m/s². The value of g varies as we move from one location to another.  

The value of acceleration due to gravity on the surface of moon is 1.62 m/s². When some objects are fallen on the moon, they all move under the constant acceleration of 1.62 m/s².

Hence, all options are correct i.e. a Styrofoam cooler,  a shot put  and a bowling ball.
