Explanation:

What do you mean by free fall?

The gravity of the earth attracts every object towards its centre. When an object is dropped from a certain height, it begins to fall towards Earth’s surface under the influence of gravitational force. Such a motion of an object is called free fall.

Definition

Freefall is defined as a situation when a body is moving only under the influence of the earth’s gravity. Since external force is acting on the ball, the motion will be accelerated. This free-fall acceleration is also known as acceleration due to gravity.

Example

Listed below are a few examples of free fall

A stone falling in an empty well

The ball thrown in a projectile motion

A spacecraft in continuous orbit

Free fall is defined as a situation when a body is moving only under the influences of the earth's gravity.Since external force is acting on the ball,the motion will be acceralated.This free fall equation is also known as accelerator due to gravity.
