Title: Is there a max velocity in a frictionless environment when an object is pulled by a gravitational constant? Post by: __Aycee on Feb 5, 2013 Is there a maximum velocity in a frictionless environment when an object is pulled by a gravitational constant?
Meaning, can a gravitational body exert a constant force on an object such that it accelerates forever? Or is there some maximum velocity the object achieves? If so, what determines the max velocity?

Post by: smoran1 on Feb 5, 2013 The maximum velocity that can be achieved by a gravitational force is the speed of light. That can happen to matter falling into a black hole.
