yes
The force exerted only when two objects are touching is called friction. Friction occurs as a result of the resistance between the surfaces of the objects when they move against each other.
One such force is gravity; basically, gravity is the ONLY force that affects ALL objects.
No, an object cannot exert a force on itself. The concept of self-exerted force is not supported by the laws of physics. Objects can only experience forces from external sources, which can impact their motion or stability.
Freefall this means the objects is falling through the air while gravity is pulling.
Objects in free fall in a vacuum accelerate due to the force of gravity acting on them. In the absence of air resistance or other external forces, the only force acting on the object is gravity, causing it to accelerate at a constant rate of 9.8 m/s^2 towards the Earth's center.

Earth's gravity pulls all objects toward its center of mass, or in most cases toward the surface. Gravity is a property of matter,and causes every mass to exert a force on every other mass. In this case, the Earth's gravity applies a force to every object on it, and that force will accelerate an object toward the Earth's center, unless it is prevented by some intervening mass. It will still have the potential to accelerate again if the intervening mass is removed.
as an object accelerates, the amount of drag exerted on it increases. This means that more force is necessary to sustain the same level of acceleration. If that external force is increasing, as in a car or plane, then the object can be accelerated well past its terminal velocity. If, however, the only force being exerted on it is the force of gravity, then eventually the drag will become as great as the static force of gravity, and the object will cease to accelerate.
Yes, objects are generally lighter in water than in air due to the buoyant force exerted by the water. This force opposes the gravitational force on the object, making it feel lighter in water.
Gravity and free fall are similar because they are both a force that pulls objects downward. <><><><><> Gravity is the force that pulls you down. Free fall is when you have no opposing force keeping you up.
If gravity is the only force present, objects will accelerate towards each other based on their masses and the distance between them. This can lead to attractions between objects in the universe, such as planets orbiting around stars. Without other forces to counteract gravity, objects will continue to move towards each other until collision.
Inverting? I assume you mean the surrounding medium, or the medium in between. No; the gravitational force depends ONLY on the masses, and on the distance. Of course, anything between the two objects may exert forces OTHER than the gravitational force.
