In free fall, gravity steadily increases an object's downward speed.

The math behind it

v = v₀ + g·t. Dropped from rest, an object gains about 9.81 m/s every second.

Worked Example

After 3 s from rest → 29.43 m/s.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does mass matter?

No — ignoring air resistance, all objects fall at the same rate.
