<h2>Right answer: acceleration due to gravity is always the same </h2><h2 />
According to the experiments done and currently verified, in vacuum (this means there is not air or any fluid), all objects in free fall experience the same acceleration, which is <u>the acceleration of gravity</u>.
Now, in this case we are on Earth, so the gravity value is
Note the objects experience the acceleration of gravity regardless of their mass.
Nevertheless, on Earth we have air, hence <u>air resistance</u>, so the afirmation <em>"Free fall is a situation in which the only force acting upon an object is gravity" </em>is not completely true on Earth, unless the following condition is fulfiled:
If the air resistance is <u>too small</u> that we can approximate it to <u>zero</u> in the calculations, then in free fall the objects will accelerate downwards at and hit the ground at approximately the same time.

Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of ball = 0.1kg
Force on the ball = 5N
time taken = 0.1s
Unknown:
final speed of the ball = ?
Solution:
According to newton's second law "the net force on a body is the product of its mass and acceleration".
Force = mass x acceleration equation 1
Acceleration =
V is the final velocity
U is the initial velocity
T is the time taken
U = O since it is a stationary body;
a =
Input "a" into equation 1
F = m x
5 = 0.1 x
V = 5m/s

Explanation:
Consider the kinematic equation,
where x is the distance traveled, v is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is time. By plugging in known values and solving for x,
through simple algebra we get
where this is the distance traveled in meters.
