SUMMARY
The force acting on a freely falling body with a mass of 100 kg can be calculated using Newton's Second Law of Motion. The acceleration due to gravity is approximately 9.81 m/s². Therefore, the force in Newtons is determined by the formula F = m * a, resulting in a force of 981 N acting on the mass.
