A falling object, such as a ball, can stop very quickly (in a thousandth of a second or thereabouts) but nothing stops instantly. To stop in zero time would take infinite force.
Gravity
Assuming that there are no other forces on the object, the force that causes the acceleration of a falling object is the gravitational force (attractive force that exists between two masses). In problems, this assumption is usually used.However, in Force = mass*acceleration it is important to remember it is net acceleration and net force. Thus, for an object falling in real life the acceleration is caused by the gravitational force and a drag force which results from the object moving through the air. You have to take into account all the forces on the object.
The normal force is what prevents an object from falling through the ground. The force of gravity is equal to the product of the mass and acceleration due to gravity, so the ground that the object sits on must apply an equal force in the opposite direction (Newton's Third Law), other wise the object would fall through.
The acceleration due to gravity on earth doesn't depend on the mass of the falling object. All falling objects on the same planet fall with the same acceleration. On earth, the acceleration is 9.8 meters/sec2 .
you have to take mass and acceleration to get force
Acceleration. A free-falling object falls at constant force, and thereby at constant acceleration.
Gravity
Gravity
Force = mass * acceleration Since the only force acting on the elevator is gravity, the force is 1000*9.81 = 981N Towards the ground Note that it is essential to put the direction that the force is acting as it is a vector quantity.
If gravity is the only force acting on a falling body, then its acceleration is constant until it hits the ground, and the number is 9.81 meters (32.2 feet) per second2 .

Gravity
Acceleration of a falling object is directly proportional tothe force of gravity in the object's location.
By Newton's Second Law: force = mass x acceleration, or acceleration = force / mass. Since there is a force, there should be an acceleration - a change of velocity.
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
