The acceleration of gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s². That means that
an object falling under the influence of gravity will move 9.8 m/s
faster than it was moving a second earlier.
Falling from rest, it will be moving 9.8 m/s after the first second,
and 19.6 m/s after the 2nd second.
The height from which it fell doesn't matter.
