Galileo Galilei
Gravity causes falling objects to accelerate.
If there is no air resistance, gravity will accelerate the falling object, that is, it will change its velocity.
The force of gravity will accelerate the falling objects towards itself.
The effect of gravity on ANY object - falling or not - is to pull it downward. If the object is in free fall, it will accelerate downwards.
There sure is. Gravity goes all the way to infinity. But if you are in conditions of free fall, gravity will not be felt.The orbiting projectile is constantly falling yet the Earth's surface is also constantly falling out of reach.
The rate is 9.8m/sec
No
Gravity is unopposed while an object is falling.
A falling object will continue to accelerate when free falling, but each object has a maximum speed which it can reach (but go no faster than this speed) when free falling from great heights. True.
Sir Isaac Newton and Galileo both studied the effects of gravity on falling bodies.
The mutual attractive forces of gravity between the body and the Earth.
Isaac Newton who developed the theory of gravity.
