Question

Does the acceleration produced in a freely falling body depend on the mass of the body?

Answer 1

No, the acceleration produced in a freely falling body does not depend on the mass of the body.

The acceleration of a freely falling body is equal to g, which is known as acceleration due to gravity.

The expression for acceleration due to gravity is $g=G\frac{M}{R^2}$, where 'G' is universal gravitational constant, 'M' is mass of the earth, and 'R' is radius of the Earth

From the above expression, it is clear that the acceleration of a freely falling body is independent of mass of the body, but depends on mass of the planet.
