Depends what you mean by "freely falling". If you consider a body falling toward the earth through a complete vacuum, there is practically no limit to its speed. The gravitational attraction will cause the body to accelerate, so the speed will keep increasing until it collides with the earth.
If the body is falling though the atmosphere, however, we must take air resistance into account.
Let the force (downward) due to gravity be F.
Let the drag coefficient of the falling body be C.
Let m be the mass of the body, and v be the speed of the body.
Then we have the equation;
m dv/dt = F - Cv
The speed will be constant when dv/dt = 0, so then F-Cv=0.
Solving for v we get
v = F/C, which will be the terminal velocity of the falling body.
Close to earth, F=mg. The drag coefficient C is much harder to determine. It will depend on the shape of the object, and will also depend on the speed. However, you can look up values for C that can give pretty good approximations if the body is a nice shape.
A free falling body has no apparent weight but weight. concept of apparent wt is valid as long as rection plane is present. be carefull don't confuse wt and apparent wt. wt remains constant till the body is outside the gavity.
That depends on the object. Some bodies have very low freefall speeds, while others have very high ones, and most have sort of "average" speeds.
Usually sky Divers experience a maximum free fall speed (Also known as Terminal Velocity) of 60m/s (meters per second). But that also depends on weight and air conditions.
Nothing.
If the 'weight' of a body is the gravitational force between the body and the Earth,
then as long as the body stays at about the same distance from the center of the
Earth, its weight is constant, and has no connection with its motion.
Near Earth, the acceleration (due to Earth's gravity) is approximately 9.8 meters/second2. In other places, for example at a greater distance from Earth, or on the Moon or on other planets, the acceleration due to gravity takes on other values.
yes. also called terminal velocity.
because water has higher viscosity than air so resisting the movement of the body in it more than air so decreasing the velocity
-- Without gravity, there would be no orbits. -- Gravity bends the motion of a planet into a curve. Without gravity, the planet would continue in a straight line, and there would be no orbits. -- Once you completely understand gravity, you can figure out everything there is to know about orbits, because it all comes from the behavior of gravity.
That the component of the velocity towards or away from the origin is zero. You can infer nothing at all about its overall velocity since it could be travelling in a transverse direction at any velocity.
zero because the initial and final velocity is constant . so,difference bet. final velocity and initial velocity is zero
Velocity
If the body is freely falling, this sum will remain constant.
A freely body is the body which is freely falling under the force of gravity i.e. an acceleration of 9.8 m/s2
no
... accelerates at approx 9.81 metres per second squared and experiences weightlessness. Friction with the air prevents continuous acceleration and the falling body reaches a maximum velocity called the terminal velocity.
no force act on it
Its the air resistance that causes the free falling body to reach its terminal velocity
Assuming the object starts at rest, it is zero. However, if the object is thrown upward or downward, its inital velocity will not be zero.

None whatsoever.
