Gravitation and air resistance.
There could be some electrostatic or magnetic forces there too, but those would
depend on the composition of the object and the nature of what's floating around
in the environment, so they're not always there. Gravitation and air resistance are
always there.

What forces act on falling objects?
gravity and drag
How does gravity affect the veloctiy of falling objects?
The force of gravity will accelerate the falling objects towards itself.
What is the cumulative effect of the forces on the objects motion?
The falling object
What forces can affect an objects velocity but not the speed?
Centripetal forces can.
How does gravity affect objects falling to the ground?
gravity is what makes objects fall
What two things affect falling objects?
gravity and mass
What is it called when two or more equal forces act on an object?
falling objects.
What are two forces that affect an object falling?
-- gravity -- air resistance
How does gravity affect objects falling at the same time?
Two objects falling at the same time will fall with the same speed (assuming they both have similar shape and density)
How do forces affect a falling object?
Air resistance and gravity are the main components.
The forces acting on objects falling near the earths surface are?
Mainly gravity, and air resistance.
How do unbalanced forces affect objects?
An unbalanced force will cause acceleration in the direction of the force.
