D. Free fall

Explanation:

An object is said to be in free fall when there is only one force acting on the body, which is the force of gravity.

Near the Earth's surface, the force of gravity acting on a body is given by

F = mg

where

m is the mass of the body

g is the acceleration of gravity (its value is [tex]9.8 m/s^2[/tex])

The direction of this force is downward (towards the Earth's centre).

If we apply Newton's second law on an object in free-fall, we can find its acceleration. In fact, we have:

[tex]a=\frac{F}{m}[/tex]

And substituting F,

[tex]a=\frac{mg}{m}=g=9.8 m/s^2[/tex]

So, every object in free-fall accelerates at [tex]9.8 m/s^2[/tex] towards the ground.

Free fall is a special type of motion in which the gravity is the only force that acting upon an object.

Explanation:

In the free fall the object have gravity force only. when you dropped the ball from top of the building, and it will start falling. The balls falls due to gravity. Imagine when you have held the ball in your hand, gravity is acting, but the frictional force between your fingers and ball is acting on the opposite side. When the ball is kept in air, gravity is the only force that acts on the ball. Hence in free fall, the object has no another forces except gravity.
