If you removed air resistance would objects fall with constant acceleration?
Yes. Neglecting the effects of air resistance, all objects near the surface of the earth fall with the same constant acceleration, regardless of their mass/weight.
What is the measure of a body's resistance to acceleration?
Mass measures the body's resistance to acceleration.
What is the Effect of increasing the object's mass of the acceleration due to gravity?
On earth, the mass of an object has no effect whatsoever on its acceleration due to the force of gravity. All objects fall with the same acceleration, regardless of their mass. Any observed difference is due entirely to air resistance.
Mass is a measure of an objects resistance to?
To acceleration (change in velocity).
Why the air resistance decrease the acceleration on falling object?
Drop a pound of feathers (in a bag) and a pound of lead from a height. The smaller mass of the lead will let it fall faster due to less air resistance, than the greater mass and much greater air resistance of the feathers.
Weight equals mass X acceleration of free-fall?
No, because acceleration of free fall is gravitational acceleration minus air resistance. Weight does not involve air resistance.

What is mass physical science?
Mass is the resistance of matter to acceleration.
An object with a mass of 10.5 kg experiences a force of 22.05 N What is the acceleration of the object?
The mass has an acceleration of 2.1m/s2 (A = force/mass).
If you were to weigh yourself in an elevator that is in free fall would you weigh more?
Free fall means the upward acceleration of air resistance cancels out the downward acceleration of gravity, leaving only your mass. If you're confused about the difference between mass and weight: Weight = (mass) * (gravity (9.8 m/s^2)) Mass = weight/gravity

Why are the objects easier to push or pull than others?
An object with a greater mass needs more force. Mass is what gives an object resistance to acceleration. Newton's Third Law: force = mass x acceleration, or acceleration = force / mass.
An object with a mass of 9.9 kg experiences a force of 16.83 N What is the acceleration of the object?
Acceleration is 1.7m/s^2
A ball is dropped and a ball of similar mass is fired which has greater acceleration?
If we disregard air resistance; they both have identical acceleration under gravity. If we take air resistance into account, then the mass that is fired will be de-accelerating slightly, so if you calculate the overall acceleration it will be slightly lower than the mass that is dropped.
