B (9.81 m/s^2)
Speed no, because acceleration isn't 0
Velocity, pretty much same as speed
Distance no, because it's getting closer

Answer: constant acceleration

Explanation: constant acceleration is maintain when a body is falling neglecting air resistance.

The distance gets closer so it's impossible to say constant distance.

It can't experience constant speed because the distance is not constant.

It can't experience constant velocity because the displacement is not constant
