In a vacuum it does not have any effect. In a fluid, surface area, shape and texture has great effect. A small, smooth, aerodynamically designed surface area, especially the leading surface area would aid in positive acceleration. The opposite would aid in negative acceleration.

How does the surface area of an object affect the free-fall time?
Aerodynamic drag, depends on size, surface texture and shape. The force behind it = mass * acceleration due to gravity
How does the area of exposed surface affect evaporation?
The larger the exposed surface area - the faster evaporation occurs.
How does surface area affect friction?
more rough surface more friction object have
In freefall do all objects near Earth's surface have the same acceleration?
Without atmospheric drag, all free falling objects near earth's surface will have the same acceleration. But because of friction with the air (air resistance), the velocity of objects due to that acceleration is limited. The actual velocity is dependent on the surface area of the object relative to its mass. The principle of the parachute is to increase the surface area of a falling object with respect to its mass.
Does surface area affect static friction?
Yes
How does the surface area of an object affect the free-fall time?
Aerodynamic drag, depends on size, surface texture and shape. The force behind it = mass * acceleration due to gravity
How does surface area affect damping of an oscillation?
The larger the surface area, the larger the damping of an oscillation
How does surface area affect the weathering rates?
A great surface area is a factor which favors weathering.
How does surface area affect weathering?
it doesnt
Where surface area is not affect the rate of a reaction?
Surface area affect the reaction rate because the contact between finely divided particles is improved.
How does the area of exposed surface affect evaporation?
The larger the exposed surface area - the faster evaporation occurs.
How does the surface area of a rock affect the rate of weathering.?
The surface area of a rock has a big affect on the rate of weathering. The higher the surface area of the rock in proportion to its overall mass will result in a quicker rate of weathering of the rock.
How is surface area related to area?
How does slope affect the rate of weathering
How does surface area affect friction?
more rough surface more friction object have
How does surface tension depend on surface area?
I think its depends on the nature of the liquid, the surrounding environment like (Gravitational acceleration ) and temperature
How does surface area affect the rate of evaporation?
The bigger the surface area of water the more evaporation will take place.
How does increased surface area affect the action of an enzyme?
the greater the surface area the easier it is for them to reach and react with substrates
