free fall
The type of friction that objects falling through air experience is called air resistance or drag. This friction force opposes the motion of the falling object, ultimately affecting its speed and trajectory.
To be very technical and precise, the answer consists of two parts: 1). No. 2). Outside of laboratory conditions, there can be no free-falling objects on Earth. "Free falling" means that there is no other force on the object except the gravitational one, so there's no friction acting on it. But this situation is impossible on Earth, because anything that falls is falling through air, so it does have friction acting on it ... called "air resistance" ... and it's not free falling.
True. Objects falling through the air experience air resistance, which is a type of friction that opposes the motion of the object.
When friction is reduced to 0, objects will move with minimal resistance. This can make it difficult to control the speed and direction of objects, leading to instability and potential safety hazards. In some cases, objects may slide or slip uncontrollably.

Objects falling through air experience a type of fluid friction called air resistance or drag. This force opposes the motion of the falling object and slows it down as it moves through the air.
Air Resistance: a form of friction.
aerodynamic drag
You're fishing for "air resistance" but your description isn't correct. Air resistance doesn't "slow" a falling object. Once the object has built up to some particular speed of fall, air resistance prevents it from falling any faster.
False. Free falling objects accelerate at a rate of 9.8 m/s^2 due to the force of gravity acting on them. The force of friction and air resistance do not significantly affect the acceleration of free falling objects in a vacuum.
efficency is reduced by friction.
