Best Answer

In free fall, the force of gravity alone causes an object to accelerate in the downward direction.

Do heavier objects fall with a greater acceleration than lighter objects in free fall?

false


In free fall all objects fall with the same acceleration?

In free fall in a vacuum, all objects fall at the same rate of acceleration. In air, however, friction comes into play, so that various objects can fall at different rates.


In free fall do all objects fall with the same acceleration?

yes, objects fall at a rate of 9.8m/swith acceleration. For every second in free fall you must add 9.8m/s to get the acceleration of an object.


How is friction reduced in falling objects?

free fall


How is gravity related to free fall?

Gravity and free fall are similar because they are both a force that pulls objects downward. <><><><><> Gravity is the force that pulls you down. Free fall is when you have no opposing force keeping you up.


How do objects fall if air friction is disregarded?

They Free Fall without losing it's/their momentum.

What occurs when objects free fall near the Earths surface constant acceleration?

Yes, exactly. Free fall results in constant acceleration.


The acceleration due 2 gravity of all objects in free fall is the same?

if you are asking that, in general, all objects accelerate at an equal speed due to gravity in free fall, yes.they are slowed by air resistance.


Is their any chance that the heavier objects in free fall differ from the lighter objects when it comes to its acceleration?

Yes. The acceleration depends on the aerodynamics of the shapes of the objects - not their mass.


What do objects in free fall near the surface of the Earth experience Constant What?

Constant Acceleration


How do objects in free fall in a vacuum accelerate?

Because in air there is gravity which can make that to accerelate
