Freely Falling Objects are the objects falling due to the force of gravity. The Acceleration produced in the object due to gravity is called gravitational acceleration and is denoted by g which has the value of 9.8 * 10^8 m/s^2.
There are many experiments on free falling objects. Aristotle an ancient greek philosopher found that heavier objects reach earth earlier than lighter objects. This was disproved by Galileo who experimented on leaning tower of pisa by dropping the two objects one of heavier weight and other of lighter one simultaneously and observed that both the objects hit the ground simultaneously. He thus concluded that freely falling body fall on the ground ireespective of mass.
