in freefall it has no weight , only mass

from f=m*g, if a 1 kg mass freefalls under earth gravity (9.81 m/s^2)

then f = 1 *9.81 = 9.81 newtons, sometimes g is rounded to 10, then the answer would be 1*10=10 newtons

air resistance (which is a force ( v^2 * drag coefficient)) is ignored here

What is another name for newtons law?

the name for newton's third law is the law of inertia. it states that an object that is moving will keep in motion unless an outside force acts upon it and an object at rest will continue to be at rest until an outside force acts upon it.
