Gravitational acceleration is simply acceleration due to gravity.
If it is gravitational acceleration then it it is positive in downward and negative in upward direction..if it is not gravitational acceleration then it is depending upon the value of acceleration.
Positive acceleration ==> speeding up Negative acceleration ==> slowing down
The actual gravitational force on the astronaut ... the force attracting him to themass of the earth ... is exactly the same as it always is, and is equal to his weight.But ... he feels as if there's more force on him, as if his weight has increased.That's because he's accelerating aboard the launch vehicle, and there's no wayto tell the difference between the force of gravity and the force of acceleration.
constant acceleration is when you gain the same speed over the same time
Acceleration is affected by the angle of inclination due to the component of gravitational force acting parallel to the surface. As the angle increases, a larger portion of the gravitational force contributes to accelerating an object down the slope. Conversely, at smaller angles, less gravitational force acts parallel to the incline, resulting in lower acceleration. Thus, the steeper the incline, the greater the acceleration experienced by an object moving down it.
