Best Answer

In Newtons, which are Kilogram meters per second, or Km/s2. It is measured as a force.

It is also common to refer to the acceleration of gravity or "g" and describe it merely as an acceleration, since the gravity of an object accelerates all other objects at the same rate (if the distances involved are about the same). 'g' is almost always defined by earth's gravitational acceleration at it's surface, of 9.8KG/s2, and is used as the standard unit.

Is gravity measured in grams?

gravity is weight and weight is measured in N (newtons). so, no, its not measured in grams. :) Actually, gravity is measured as acceleration and is 9.8 Meters/second/second or 32.2 feet/second/second. Weight is the effect felt BECAUSE of gravity.


Is gravity measured in cubic centimeters?

No. First, gravity is a phenomenon not something you can measure. What you can measure is the force due to gravity which is measured in "Newtons" , or the acceleration due to gravity, which is measured in meters per second per second. I can't think of anything about gravity that would be measured in cubic centimeters, or cubic anything.
