When an object is free falling, it has only the force of gravity acting on it. This causes the object to accelerate downwards at a rate of 9.8 m/s^2 (on Earth). At the same time, the object experiences no air resistance or external forces influencing its motion.
there arent any.
The object is said to be in free fall.
An object falling freely under gravity is known as a free-falling object, where gravity is the only force acting on it. In the absence of other forces like air resistance, the object accelerates at a constant rate of 9.8 m/s^2 (approximately) towards the Earth's surface.
The falling of a parachutist without his parachute deployed will be quite fast. We can slow his decsent by putting a drag on the free fall with a parachute. The fall is no longer free of drag (friction).
The motion of a free falling object is influenced by the acceleration due to gravity, air resistance, and the initial velocity of the object. The mass and shape of the object can also affect its motion as it falls.
A falling object.
there arent any.
The acceleration of a falling object is called gravity. A free-falling object has an acceleration of 9.8 m/s/s when going downward on Earth.
The object is said to be in free fall.
In free fall, when the air resistance is equal to the weight of the falling object, we say that the object has reached ________ velocity.

Let's imagine there is no air resistance and that gravity is the only thing affecting a falling object. Such an object would then be in free fall. Freely falling objects are affected only by gravity
