The force of gravity causes the falling object's velocity to grow in magnitude
by 9.8 meters per second every second, while its direction remains constant.
Falling objects reach top velocity due to the acceleration of gravity pulling them downwards. As the object falls, the force of gravity causes it to accelerate until air resistance (or another opposing force) balances out the acceleration, leading to a constant velocity known as terminal velocity.
The gravity acting on a rising object and that on a falling object are the same when these objects are at the same height. What is different is that a rising object is decelerating by the force of gravity and the falling object is accelerating.
The acceleration of falling objects is affected by gravity because gravity is the force that pulls objects toward the center of the Earth. As objects fall, they accelerate due to this gravitational force acting upon them, increasing their speed until they reach terminal velocity or the ground.
Yes, if you were to drop a rock, after one second has elapsed, gravity would make it move from a standstill to its terminal velocity in the medium through which it is falling. In general, the speed would change at a rate of 9.8 m/s2.
Falling objects have a maximum speed due to air resistance. As an object falls, air resistance acts against gravity, eventually balancing out the force of gravity and limiting the object's speed. This is known as terminal velocity.

The force of gravity will accelerate the falling objects towards itself.

Falling objects accelerate due to the force of gravity acting upon them. As the object falls, the force of gravity pulls it downward, increasing its speed. This acceleration continues until the object reaches terminal velocity or encounters another force counteracting gravity.
The speed limit of falling objects is called terminal velocity. This is the constant speed that a freely falling object eventually reaches when the resistance of the medium it is falling through (like air) equals the force of gravity acting on it.
When falling objects no longer accelerate, they have reached terminal velocity. Terminal velocity is the constant speed achieved by an object when the force of air resistance matches the force of gravity acting upon it. At this point, the object stops accelerating and continues to fall at a constant speed.
known as terminal velocity, which is reached when the force of gravity pulling the object downwards is balanced by the upward force of air resistance. At terminal velocity, the object falls at a constant speed with no further acceleration.
Acceleration:Always the same, doesn't need to be calculated. Acceleration of gravity = 9.8 meters (32.2 ft) per second2Acceleration of gravity is negative (points down).Velocity:(Initial velocity) + [ (acceleration) x (time) ]Positive velocity = moving upNegative velocity = moving down
