... (Note: Gravity decreases as you move far away from the surface of the planet.). We can see how quickly an object gains speed as it falls. It travels at about 10 m/s after one second, 20 m/s after two seconds, 30 m/s after three. This translates to speeds of about 36, 72 and 108 km/h after just three ...
