Easy! the formula is Gravity x Time(seconds) = Acceleration, gravity pull is basically 9.8m/s^2 (im not sure how to put squared so i used "^2" to symbolize it) and so basically if you drop a rock on a cliff count how many seconds it takes before it hits the ground, lets say that the rock took 8.5 seconds to hit the ground so you use the gravity pull and times it by the seconds which would be 8.5s x 9.8m/s^2= it is 83.3 meters deep

Does the increase in weight cause an object to fall faster?
yes, weight plays a role in how fast an object can fall
How fast will a 2-kg ball fall from 2 meters high?
It will fall just as fast as an object of any other mass - assuming that air resistance is negligible. That is to say, if an object has a lot of surface area, it will fall slower due to air resistance.
How do you predict the density of a floating object?
By its size
How fast will an object be traveling when it hits the ground if it is dropped from a height of 45m?
You need the amount of time that it took to fall the 45m.
How fast do objects fall through air?
An object's top speed is called Terminal Velocity.The terminal velocity of an object can be calculated via a formula. See the related links.

yes, weight plays a role in how fast an object can fall
How fast does an object fall?
9.6 m/sec2.

It will fall just as fast as an object of any other mass - assuming that air resistance is negligible. That is to say, if an object has a lot of surface area, it will fall slower due to air resistance.
How fast does an object fall if it takes 3 seconds to drop 200 feet?
45.5 mph
When does the mass and or size of an object affect the time of its free fall?
if an object is lightr it will fall slower because gravity wont take it down as fast if it is heavier it will make the gravity pull it down faster
If weight is added to a object will it go fast or slow?
Depend on if you are talking a "free-fall" or an object descending the side of a mountain. Free-fall all objects regardless of weight fall at the same rate of speed (36 feet per second).
Can you use volume alone predict whether an object will sink or float?
No, because you can predict if an object will sink or float mostly on density.
Is it true the bigger the object is the harder the object will fall?
not necessarily, due to wind resistance and the surface area of said object the object will not always fall as fast. ex. a human sky diving. if they are in a pencil dive, they will fall a lot faster then if they are in a spread eagle position. but due to its mass it will sure as hell hurt a lot. so yes and no
How do you predict the density of a floating object?
By its size
If there is a net force acting on an object then newton laws predict that?
The object will accelerate.

You need the amount of time that it took to fall the 45m.
