Want this question answered?
If the object's falling energy increases (this would happen if the object is already falling downward, and air resistance is small), then the kinetic energy will increase.
Gravity is a force that accelerates the falling object towards the ground.
If there is no air resistance, gravity will accelerate the falling object, that is, it will change its velocity.
The effect of gravity on ANY object - falling or not - is to pull it downward. If the object is in free fall, it will accelerate downwards.
*by reducing the weight or density of the falling object. *By introducing resistance to the falling object in the form of flat light weighted object. *giving parachute.
A falling object accelerates at a rate of 9.8 m/s2. That means that for every second that it is falling, its velocity increases by 9.8 m/s. The higher that the object is falling from, the longer it will have to speed up, thus the higher its velocity upon impact will be. (This is assuming that it does not reach terminal velocity, the velocity at which an object can no longer accelerate because it is travelling so fast that the drag force (air resistance) is equal to the force of gravity.)
A SCALE LIKE YOU WOULD WHIGH YOURSEVE ON
force hits the object and it changes it velocity or speed and its state of motion or rest , push or pull.
The impact force depends upon the height from which it has fallen (IE- its velocity upon impact), and the duration of impact (determined by the elasticity of the collision). However, the object exerts no force upon the ground *while* falling.

It reduces the acceleration of the falling object due to friction.
The acceleration of a falling object is called gravity. A free-falling object has an acceleration of 9.8 m/s/s when going downward on Earth.
A falling object.
the greatest velocity a falling object reaches is terminal velocity
The acceleration of gravity is 32 feet per second, per second. This means that --eliminating any obvious aerodynamic considerations as there would be with, say, a feather -- the speed at which an object falls increases proportionately to the time it is falling. An object falling from a greater height will be falling for a longer time period and thus will reach a higher velocity and impact the ground with a greater force than one falling from a lower height.
If the object's falling energy increases (this would happen if the object is already falling downward, and air resistance is small), then the kinetic energy will increase.
