In Newtonian physics, free fall is any motion of a body where gravity is the only force acting upon it. ... An object moving upwards would not normally be considered to be falling, but if it is subject to the force of gravity only, it is said to be in free fall.

Answer:
When the acceleration of the object is equal to the acceleration due gravity, the motion is called as 'free fall'.
Explanation:
For example, when a person in a lift moves down with an acceleration(a) equal to the acceleration due to gravity(g), i.e., when a = g, this motion is said to be free fall.
