acceleration due to gravity acting on it, which causes it to increase in speed as it falls. The force of air resistance also acts on the ball, gradually slowing it down. Eventually, the ball reaches terminal velocity, where the force of gravity is equal to the force of air resistance and the ball falls at a constant speed.
Only if it's falling through air. If it's just the falling object and gravity, then no.
Air resistance decreases the acceleration of a falling leaf from a tree. As the leaf falls, air resistance opposes its motion, slowing it down. This results in a lower acceleration compared to if the leaf were falling in a vacuum with no air resistance.
Yes, falling objects experience air resistance. As an object falls through the air, it pushes air molecules out of the way, resulting in a force opposite to the object's motion. This air resistance depends on the object's size, shape, and speed.
If there is no air resistance while falling, the object will accelerate at a constant rate due to gravity. This means it will continue to gain speed as it falls without any force to slow it down.
Sonny and Chad begin officially dating. It's called "Falling for the Falls" because Chad tells Sonny that when she falls for him, she falls for his show, too.

When an object falls through the air and encounters air resistance, its overall speed will decrease compared to if it were falling in a vacuum. Air resistance creates a force in the opposite direction of motion which slows down the object.
The two forces acting on a falling object are gravity and air resistance. Gravity pulls the object downward, while air resistance acts in the opposite direction to slow down the object as it falls through the air.
The main forces acting on a falling object are gravity, which pulls the object downwards towards the center of the Earth, and air resistance, which opposes the motion of the object as it falls through the air.
To be very technical and precise, the answer consists of two parts: 1). No. 2). Outside of laboratory conditions, there can be no free-falling objects on Earth. "Free falling" means that there is no other force on the object except the gravitational one, so there's no friction acting on it. But this situation is impossible on Earth, because anything that falls is falling through air, so it does have friction acting on it ... called "air resistance" ... and it's not free falling.
A falling rock. In the air it has potential energy, as it falls it gets kinetic energy.
