Gravity and free fall are similar because they are both a force that pulls objects downward.
<><><><><>
Gravity is the force that pulls you down. Free fall is when you have no opposing force keeping you up.

ā 11y agoGravity is the force that causes objects to accelerate towards the Earth. In free fall, an object is only influenced by gravity, causing it to accelerate downward at a constant rate of 9.8 m/sĀ². This acceleration due to gravity is what defines free fall as an object falls under the influence of gravity without any other forces acting on it.

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.
A Vaccum Also called free-fall.

Motion under the influence of gravity alone is called free fall. In free fall, an object is only acted upon by the force of gravity, causing it to accelerate towards the Earth at a constant rate.
The two states that exist when the only force acting on an object is gravity are free fall and equilibrium. In free fall, the object is accelerating downward due to gravity, while in equilibrium, the object is either at rest or moving at a constant velocity with no net force acting on it.
Free falling isn't actually related to force, when you free fall you are falling because of gravity, gravity is one of the four known forces, but gravity is simply the warping of the fabric of space and time, you fall because the earth streches that fabric, and you fall or sink into it, like a bowling ball on a trampoline. There are no forces acting on you, rather you are simply moving with the fabric which you exist in, which has been warped by the force of gravity. Free Fall is where an object whose motion is due to gravity ALONE.
without gravity there can be no free fall. The only time humans have eperienced free fall is within a space craft where gravity is regulated.

during free fall of body the gravity of earth tries to attract the body as it applied equally to whole body ... so body do not experience any gravitational force and there is nothing present in the atmosphere to oppose the fall which results it have maximum acceleration during free fall....

An object in free fall is one that has only the force of gravity acting upon it.
