Why does and object accelerate when it falls toward Earth's surface?
Gravity is unopposed while an object is falling.
You jump off a truck and accelerate toward the surface of the Earth Does the Earth accelerate toward you?
Yes, because you attract the earth with the same gravitational force that the earth attracts you.
Why do objects accelerate during free fall?
Earth's gravity pulls all objects toward its center of mass, or in most cases toward the surface. Gravity is a property of matter,and causes every mass to exert a force on every other mass. In this case, the Earth's gravity applies a force to every object on it, and that force will accelerate an object toward the Earth's center, unless it is prevented by some intervening mass. It will still have the potential to accelerate again if the intervening mass is removed.
When you drop your egg device over the balcony it accelerated noticabley toward the earth because of gravitational interation between the egg device and earth does the earth accelerate toward the egg?
Actually, the egg device moves toward the Earth, because usually, the larger object has the greater gravitational pull.
Measure of the force of gravity on something?
The force of gravity that attracts an object on Earth toward the Earth is the object's weight on Earth. The force of gravity that attracts the Earth toward an object on it is the Earth's weight on the object. Both forces are always there, and they're equal.

Why does newton's first law of motion not work on earth?
It sure works on Earth. It works everywhere. If there is no net force on an object, the object will not accelerate. Vice versa, if the object does not accelerate, that means there is no net force on the object.
Why does an object accelerate when it falls to Earth's surface?
beause of gravity
What is the direction of acceleration for an object in the air?
Heavier than air objects accelerate downwards. Lighter than air objects accelerate upwards until they are no lighter than the air around them.

What force pulls items toward the earth?
The force that pulls an object toward earth also pulls the earth toward the object. The two forces are equal. Together, we refer to them as the force of gravity.
What is a force that pulls on an object toward the earth?
The force that pulls an object toward earth also pulls the earth toward the object.The two forces are equal. Together, we refer to them as the force of gravity.
A projectile fired horizontally will accelerate toward earth at a rate of?
9.8 m/s
The force that pulls falling toward earth is called?
The force that pulls an object toward earth also pulls the earth toward the object. The two forces are equal. Together, we refer to them as the forces of gravity.
