Does changing the mass of a free falling body affect the value of the acceleration of gravity?

No, changing the mass of a free-falling body does not affect the value of the acceleration due to gravity. The acceleration due to gravity is a constant value that is independent of the mass of the object. All objects fall at the same rate in a vacuum due to gravity.


How does air resistance affect the acceleration of a falling object-How does air resistance affect the acceleration of a falling object?

It reduces the acceleration of the falling object due to friction.


Does a rock falling from a cliff have a constant acceleration?

Yes. Every body that is falling, (if there is no other force then the gravity force) will fall in constant acceleration. Mass does not affect the acceleration of the body. According to Newton's second law: F=m*a m*g=m*a g=a F= Force m= mass a= acceleration g= gravity acceleration m*g= the force of gravity


How acceleration effect gravity?

Acceleration does not effect gravity. It is rather the other way round. Gravity can affect the rate of acceleration.


How does gravity affect the veloctiy of falling objects?

The force of gravity will accelerate the falling objects towards itself.


Does the force of gravity affect the rate of acceleration?

If you are asking the rate of acceleration on a surface, than the larger the force of gravity is, the more it will affect the rate of acceleration. The amount of friction depends one many variables, one of which is gravity. The larger your force of gravity is, the larger the force of friction is. Because of this, the more the force of gravity is, than the slower the rate of acceleration is because of the larger force of friction, which would be acting against the rate of acceleration. Therefore, the force of gravity does affect the rate of acceleration.


How does the force of the gravity affect the rate of the acceleration?

The force of gravity affects the rate of acceleration in a linear manner. In free fall, all objects accelerate at the same rate due to gravity, known as 9.81 m/s^2 on Earth. This means that the force of gravity constantly accelerates objects towards the center of the Earth at this rate unless external forces are acting on them.


How does gravity affect objects falling to the ground?

Gravity is a force that pulls objects towards the Earth. When an object is dropped, gravity acts on it, causing it to accelerate towards the ground. The speed of the object as it falls increases due to this acceleration until it reaches the ground.


Does mass affect acceleration of an fallen object?

No. If there's any difference in the acceleration of different falling objects, it's the result of air resistance. If you could drop them through a space with no air, the lightest feather and the heaviest rock would have the same acceleration. It's called the acceleration of gravity, and it's 9.8 meters (32.1 feet) per second2 on earth. Regardless of the mass of the falling object.


What two things affect falling objects?

gravity and mass


How gravity affect weight?

Gravity impacts weight because weight is calculated using F = M * A. F - Weight in this case M - Mass of your object A - Acceleration of gravity on the planet the object is on. Assuming mass remains constant and your acceleration (your gravity) increases, weight will increase. If acceleration (your gravity) decreases, weight will decrease.


How does air resistance affect the acceleration of a falling abject?

Air resistance creates friction and slows a falling object.
