When an object is in free fall, it is accelerated by gravity. It is also acted on by air resistence(drag). No lift and no thrust are exerted as the question stated that the object was in free fall.

i think that there are a lot of factors that will affect the free-falling motion. One of that will be the air frictional force. This is the friction occurred when there is a motion of a material through the air, and the surface of the material will keep in touch (means frictional force occurred) along the medium of the air. For example, the time taken of a coin to free from in a medium of vacuum is the same whether it is placed on the moon or earth. But as long as the coin is falling down in the vacuum medium. Hopefully this answer will help you.
