The only thing you have to figure out is what planet the object is falling on.
As long as you stay on the same planet, free-fall acceleration is always the
same. It's called the acceleration of gravity on that planet. On earth, it's
9.8 meters (or 32.2 feet) per second per second. That means that if an
object is in free-fall near the earth's surface, its speed keeps growing,
and at any time, it's always 9.8 meters per second (32.2 feet per second)
faster than it was 1 second earlier. It doesn't even matter how heavy the
falling object is ... everything falls with the same acceleration. That means
that if you drop a small stone and a gigantic boulder out of an airplane at
the same time ... or a feather and a Bowling ball ... everything hits the ground
at the same time.
That's the way gravity works. Whenever you see something that doesn't work
out that way, it's strictly a matter of the air that it had to fall through.
To calculate the acceleration in terms of g's for an object in free fall, divide the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s2) by the acceleration of the object. This will give you the acceleration in terms of g's, where 1 g is equal to the acceleration due to gravity.
Free-fall acceleration is typically calculated using the equation a = g, where "a" represents the acceleration due to gravity and "g" represents the acceleration due to gravity (approximately 9.81 m/s^2 on Earth). This acceleration is constant for all objects in free fall, regardless of their mass.
The acceleration of an object in free-fall is equal to the acceleration due to gravity, which is approximately 9.8 m/s^2 on the surface of the Earth. This means that objects in free-fall will experience an acceleration of 9.8 m/s^2 downwards, regardless of their mass.
Yes, objects falling in free fall have a constant acceleration due to gravity.
In free fall, objects experience an acceleration of approximately 9.8 m/s^2, due to the force of gravity pulling them downward. This rate of acceleration is constant and independent of the mass of the object.

The rate of free-fall acceleration is a constant based upon the local gravity - on planet Earth the acceleration is 9.8m/s2. Mass is a function of the object being measured or observed, which can vary considerably. The two do not directly affect each other, but both taken together determine the force of the object in free-fall - by knowing the free-fall acceleration and the mass of the object, you can calculate how hard it will impact the Earth.
The acceleration of an object in free-fall is equal to the acceleration due to gravity, which is approximately 9.8 m/s^2 on the surface of the Earth. This means that objects in free-fall will experience an acceleration of 9.8 m/s^2 downwards, regardless of their mass.
when the acceleration of the freely falling object is equal to the acceleration due to gravity then there occurs free fall.
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.

No, an object in free fall experiences the same acceleration due to gravity regardless of its shape or size. Air resistance does not affect the acceleration due to gravity acting on the object.
Constant acceleration
Yes, in free fall all objects experience the same acceleration due to gravity, regardless of their mass. This acceleration is approximately 9.8 m/s^2 on Earth.
If the lift is in free fall, any riders will feel "weightless". Uniform downward acceleration will *only* produce "weightlessness" if the acceleration is equal to the acceleration due to gravity (id est, acceleration in free fall).
