The speed that things fall to the earth depends on two things, how fast they started falling and how long they have been falling. The equation for finding that speed, v, is:
v = v0 + a*t
where v0 is the initial speed something began falling, a is the acceleration or change in velocity is causing it to fall, and t is the time it has been falling. If the object is falling on the earth, the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s2. So, if you drop something off a very tall building by just letting it go, letting v0 = 0, then after 10 seconds, it will be moving at 98 m/s. The weight of the object only matters if there is air resistance.
Things fall randomly due to the force of gravity, which pulls objects towards the center of the Earth. When an object is dropped, it accelerates towards the ground at a constant rate, resulting in a seemingly random falling motion.
Not necessarily. It depends on their rate of friction, which impacts how fast they will accelerate downwards. This is why a golf ball or tennis ball will fall faster than a leaf or a piece of paper.
No, the mass of an object does not affect the rate at which it falls. Objects of different masses fall at the same rate in a vacuum due to the influence of gravity. This principle is known as the equivalence principle.
That's like asking "Does the loudness of a sound affect its amplitude ?", or"Does the number marked on the tag affect the item's price ?"The rate of fall IS the magnitude of the velocity.
No, both a dime and a quarter would fall at the same rate in a vacuum due to gravity. The weight and size of the coins would not significantly affect the rate at which they fall.
No
Yes, due to air resistance a rubber ball would fall faster that a sheet of paper. In a vacuum, all things would fall at the same rate.

Inflationary pressure is when the price of things in general increase at a higher rate than wages, thus causing a financial strain.
This depends on their initial velocity, but they will in general accelerate at 9.8 m/s^2 downwards, minus friction.
Because the gravity is the same. this does not explain why real heavy objects fall at the same rate as light ones since the more mass their is their is supposed to be more gravity.....also how does space/time warped space affect such things as the falling apple
If the two objects are not interacting, then the rate of fall would be unaffected.
very fall gold rate

There is no such character in Things Fall Apart.
