    In classical mechanics, free fall is any motion of a body where gravity is the only force acting upon it. In the context of general relativity, where gravitation is reduced to a space-time curvature, a body in free fall has no force acting on it.

  3. Freefall review (article) | Khan Academy. Google Classroom. Review the key concepts and skills for acceleration due to gravity, including analyzing motion of objects in freefall. Key terms. Why do we ignore air resistance? Analyzing motion for objects in freefall.

  4. Sep 12, 2022 · An interesting application of Equation 3.3.2 through Equation 3.5.22 is called free fall, which describes the motion of an object falling in a gravitational field, such as near the surface of Earth or other celestial objects of planetary size.

  5. Any object that is being acted upon only by the force of gravity is said to be in a state of free fall. There are two important motion characteristics that are true of free-falling objects: Free-falling objects do not encounter air resistance.

  6. Feb 16, 2023 · Free fall and projectile motion describe objects that are moving through the air and acted on only by gravity. In this post, we will describe this type of motion using both graphs and kinematic equations.
