Answer:

False.

Explanation:

The statement shown in the question above is false and this can be confirmed by Newton's law on universal gravitation. According to Newton, the gravitational force exerted on any body is proportional to its weight, but the distance that the object travels when falling is disproportionate. In addition, if the force resulting from the weight of the object and its displacement has an angle of 0º, the weight force of that object will provide an increase in kinetic energy.
