What is an example of an object that is in free fall?

The earth. Because it is in orbit around the sun, the earth is technically in free-fall. The moon is in free-fall around the earth for the same reason.

The earth is moving perpendicular to the direction of that pull at exactly the speed needed to stay about 93 million miles away from the sun. Earth ----------->Pull-----> SUN | | V Direction of travel Because of this, earth will fall in an ellipse around the sun unless some other force acts on earth. Hence, Earth is in free-fall.
