Answer:

constant acceleration

Step-by-step explanation:

When an object falls under the action of gravity only it is said that the it is moving under freely. We know that with an increase in height the value of acceleration due to gravity decreases. It is equal to 9.8 m/s².

g is inversely proportional to the radius of the earth. It is more at poles as compared to equator.

So, when the objects fall freely near the surface of earth the object will move under constant acceleration.
