No weight.<\/p>\n<p>When a body falls freely under gravitational force, it is in a state of free fall. In free fall, the only force acting on the body is the gravitational force. This means that the body is accelerating at a constant rate, and its weight is zero.<\/p>\n<p>Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object. It is calculated by multiplying the mass of the object by the acceleration due to gravity. The acceleration due to gravity is the same for all objects on Earth, regardless of their mass. This means that the weight of an object is proportional to its mass.<\/p>\n<p>When an object is in free fall, its mass does not change. However, its acceleration due to gravity is zero. This means that the weight of the object is also zero.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to note that weight is not the same as mass. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a brief explanation of each option:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Option A: Maximum weight. This is incorrect because the weight of an object is zero when it is in free fall.<\/li>\n<li>Option B: Minimum weight. This is incorrect because the weight of an object is zero when it is in free fall.<\/li>\n<li>Option C: No weight. This is the correct answer because the weight of an object is zero when it is in free fall.<\/li>\n<li>Option D: No effect on <div class=\"youtube-subscribe-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCNHT8lW-JmLC68rjBfZhdkg?sub_confirmation=1\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"youtube-subscribe-button\">\r\n            <div class=\"telegram-channel-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/pscnotes2025\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"telegram-channel-button\">\r\n            <span class=\"telegram-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 496 512\">\r\n                    <path fill=\"white\" d=\"M248,8C111,8,0,119,0,256s111,248,248,248s248-111,248-248S385,8,248,8z M362,177L320,367c-3,14-10,18-20,14l-56-41l-27,26 c-3,3-5,5-10,5l4-63L323,196c5-5-1-7-8-3l-98,62l-42-13c-9-3-10-9,2-14l162-63C351,160,365,164,362,177z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n            Join Our Telegram Channel\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div> <span class=\"youtube-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 576 512\">\r\n                    <path d=\"M549.7 124.1c-6.3-23.7-24.8-42.3-48.3-48.6C458.8 64 288 64 288 64S117.2 64 74.6 75.5c-23.5 6.3-42 24.9-48.3 48.6-11.4 42.9-11.4 132.3-11.4 132.3s0 89.4 11.4 132.3c6.3 23.7 24.8 41.5 48.3 47.8C117.2 448 288 448 288 448s170.8 0 213.4-11.5c23.5-6.3 42-24.2 48.3-47.8 11.4-42.9 11.4-132.3 11.4-132.3s0-89.4-11.4-132.3zm-317.5 213.5V175.2l142.7 81.2-142.7 81.2z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n            Subscribe on YouTube\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div> its weight.
