    According to Newton's 2nd Law of Motion, if a constant force acts on an object, the object will accelerate.

    According to Newton's law of universal gravitation, the gravitational attraction between the Earth and an object causes a constant force to act on the object.

    So, because of that force, Falling objects accelerate as they approach the ground. (B)
