Want this question answered?
the object in free fall's acceleration depends on its mass
No. An object in free-fall accelerates at a constant rate of acceleration.Its speed grows at a constant rate.
an object in free fall and an object's velocity is decreasing by the same amount every minute
Free fall. Airbus has built aircrafts that may dive with an acceleration of 9.81 m/s2 to simulate zero gravity. satellites are technically in a constant free fall. A world where no friction would occur would lead to constant acceleration as long as the force acting on the object stays the same.
The momentum of a moving object is (mass of the object) multiplied by (speed of the object). Neither of those numbers is affected by where you are, whether on a planet, on a moon, or in space. Mass times speed equals momentum.
Yes

I do believe it will constantly get faster up into the point of disenigrating
No. The mass is constant. Until it hits.

Such an object is said to be in "free fall".
Technically, an object is in free fall when the only force acting on it is its own weight. Non-technically, people refer to objects falling through the atmosphere as being in free fall even though the force caused by the object's interaction with the atmosphere is working against its weight. Anything in orbit is in free fall, even though it can go for billions of years without ever "completing" its fall, due to its momentum.
A path of free fall is an orbit. The combination of gravity, and angular momentum, cause an orbiting object to move in a circular or elliptical path which, unlike the more usual kind of falling, doesn't reach the ground.
No, due to acceleration its velocity goes on increasing. It is given as v = g t
