Answer

Ah, the age-old question: how fast do things fall towards the ground? Well, let me tell you, my friend, it's not a trick question! The correct answer is... (drumroll please)... A. 9.8 m/s/s! Yep, that's right, all objects in free fall will accelerate towards Earth at a rate of 9.8 meters per second squared. Don't worry if you didn't know that off the top of your head - after all, it's not like you're a physics expert or anything (unless you are, in which case, hi!). Anyway, now you know, and knowing is half the battle, right?
