This depends on their initial velocity, but they will in general accelerate at 9.8 m/s^2 downwards, minus friction.

Why do things fall randomly?

Things fall randomly due to the force of gravity, which pulls objects towards the center of the Earth. When an object is dropped, it accelerates towards the ground at a constant rate, resulting in a seemingly random falling motion.


If a book and a piece of paper is falling at different rates how can you change the shape of the paper so they will nearly fall at the same rate?

You can crumple the paper up to increase its air resistance, which will slow down its rate of fall. This will cause the paper to fall more slowly, closer to the rate at which the book is falling.


Why do thing fall at the same rate?

Because the gravity is the same. this does not explain why real heavy objects fall at the same rate as light ones since the more mass their is their is supposed to be more gravity.....also how does space/time warped space affect such things as the falling apple


Why do a rabbit and tiger both fall at the same rate in absence of air?

A rabbit and a tiger fall at the same rate in the absence of air because there is no air resistance affecting their falling bodies.

No


What do falling objects accelerate at a rate of?

Falling objects accelerate due to gravity at a rate of approximately 9.8 m/s^2 near the surface of the Earth. This acceleration is constant and causes objects to increase in speed as they fall.


How does gravity make things fall?

The weight of the object causes gravity to take the object falling
