constant force down (newtons) = mass (kgs) * acceleration due to gravity (m/s/s)

increasing force up (newtons) = velocity (m/s) 2 * objects drag coefficient
The only force acting on an object in freefall is gravity. This force causes the object to accelerate downward towards the Earth.
Freefall this means the objects is falling through the air while gravity is pulling.
"Free fall" means that gravity is the only force acting on a body.
Freefall can occur in the absence of air resistance because the only force acting on the object is gravity. In the absence of air, there is no air resistance to counteract the gravitational force, allowing the object to fall freely.
Freefall refers to the motion of an object falling solely under the influence of gravity, with no other forces acting on it except air resistance. During freefall, the only force acting on the object is its weight, causing it to accelerate downwards at a constant rate of 9.81 m/s^2 (due to gravity).
Freefall this means the objects is falling through the air while gravity is pulling.
Freefall this means the objects is falling through the air while gravity is pulling.
I wasn't there, so I have no knowledge of how things were set up in that particular experiment. The only force I'm sure of is the force of gravity, and your use of the term "dropped" seems to confirm that assumption.
An object is considered weightless when there is no normal force acting on it because weight is the force exerted by gravity on an object's mass. In freefall, the object is only subject to the force of gravity, which causes it to accelerate with the same acceleration as the object itself, resulting in a sensation of weightlessness.
Freefalling is the motion of an object falling under the influence of gravity without any other forces acting upon it. During freefall, the only force acting on the object is gravity, causing it to accelerate towards the center of the Earth at a constant rate of 9.8 m/s². This is the same force that gives objects weight and is commonly experienced when skydiving or jumping from a height.
An object is in free fall only if gravity is pulling it down and no other forces are acting on it. Because air resistance is a force, free fall can occur only where there is no air.
