Want this question answered?
An object will accelerate if and only if there is a net force acting on the object.
Gravity must be the only force acting on the object, to produce downwards vertical acceleration. There is no force acting in the horizontal direction because there is no acceleration.
Any force will do. The only condition is that the TOTAL (or NET) force acting on an object is non-zero.
The object is said to be in free fall.
When the only force on an object is the force of gravity,we say that the object is in "free fall".
It accelerates as long as the force is applied, and after that it continues at a uniform speed and direction.
