Friction inhibits the motion of objects.
Balanced forces do not alter the motion of objects.
No objects in motion stay in motion barring external force (drag in air)
Gravity provides a force; any net force will result in an acceleration, i.e., a change of motion.
Then the effect is as if there are no forces on it at all, and it moves in a straight line with constant speed.

The falling object
It resists the motion (slows it down)

THe Coriolios Effect occurs due to the objects motion on a rotating surface.
Gravity provides a force; any net force will result in an acceleration, i.e., a change of motion.
If the [group of] forces on an object is unbalanced, the object accelerates.
It provides a force in the direction opposite to the objects motion thus slowing it down.
Then the effect is as if there are no forces on it at all, and it moves in a straight line with constant speed.
