No effect whatsoever. Any two freely falling bodies fall with the same acceleration
when dropped in the same place on the same planet. That includes any two objects
falling on Earth.
Someone is sure to jump in here and point out that objects with different mass
don't fall with equal accelerations on Earth, and that's because of air resistance.
They may even go on to provide answers to other questions that were not asked,
such as a treatise on terminal velocity. All of that is true, even if confusing. This
question stipulated that the bodies in question are "freely fallling". Bodies that
are falling through air are not freely falling.
Acceleration. A free-falling object falls at constant force, and thereby at constant acceleration.
The equation of motion is not modified. Net force = mass x acceleration, whether freely falling or not.
It is a projectile falling with an acceleration equal to that of free fall. (an object falling in a vacuum at the earth's surface)
The acceleration depends on the force of gravity. Near Earth's surface, this acceleration is approximately 9.8 meters per second square.
the constant speed that a freely falling object eventually reaches when the resistance of the medium through which it is falling prevents further acceleration.

No effect whatsoever. Without air to interfere with the effects of gravity, a small feather and a large rock fall with the same acceleration.
None whatsoever.
Acceleration. A free-falling object falls at constant force, and thereby at constant acceleration.

A freely body is the body which is freely falling under the force of gravity i.e. an acceleration of 9.8 m/s2
Gravitational Force
when the acceleration of the freely falling object is equal to the acceleration due to gravity then there occurs free fall.
Exactly one . . . the gravitational force.
