9.8 m/s2

----------------------

Yes this is the average value of acceleration due to gravity near by the surface of the earth. As we go higher and higher level this g value decreases and becomes almost negligible. Same way as we go deeper and deeper the g value decreases and at the centre of the earth its value becomes zero.

How to calculate the acceleration in terms of g's for an object in free fall?

To calculate the acceleration in terms of g's for an object in free fall, divide the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s2) by the acceleration of the object. This will give you the acceleration in terms of g's, where 1 g is equal to the acceleration due to gravity.


What is the compare of the earth and the moon in terms of size and surface gravity?

earth is 81.3 times the mass of the moon . acceleration due to gravity at earths surface = 9.82 (m/s)/s acceleration due to gravity at moons surface = 1.62 (m/s)/s . 1 kg at earths surface, force = 1 * 9.82 = 9.82 newtons 1 kg at moons surface, force = 1 * 1.62 = 1.62 newtons


What is gravity meausered in?

Gravity is described in terms of the acceleration of an object falling in it. The acceleration of gravity on Earth is 9.807 meters per second2. On the Moon, it's 1.623 meters per second2. Multiply an object's mass by the local acceleration of gravity, and you have the object's weight.


What is the formula for the period of a pendulum in terms of the square root of the ratio of the acceleration due to gravity to the length of the pendulum?

The formula for the period of a pendulum in terms of the square root of the ratio of the acceleration due to gravity to the length of the pendulum is T 2(L/g), where T is the period, L is the length of the pendulum, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.


What is makemakes gravity compared to earths gravity?

The acceleration of gravity at its surface is currently estimated as 0.4 m/s2 .That's about 4% of the acceleration of gravity on the Earth's surface.


The SI unit for expressing gravity is?

There is no unit of "gravity". Gravity is described in terms of its effects, namely acceleration and force. SI unit of force: [ newton ] = 1 kilogram-meter/second2 SI unit of acceleration: meter/second2


How does an accelerometer measure acceleration in terms of 1g?

An accelerometer measures acceleration by comparing it to the acceleration due to gravity, which is commonly referred to as 1g. By detecting changes in the force exerted on a mass inside the device, an accelerometer can determine the acceleration of an object in terms of multiples of 1g.


Why does weight on an elevator change though you don't leave earths gravity?

If the elevator accelerates, the acceleration will provide an additional apparent force.


Why is acceleration due to gravity the same for all objets?

because all are measured at the same radius from the earths cog, if you doubled this distance, the acceleration would be only one quarter that of the surface


How acceleration effect gravity?

Acceleration does not effect gravity. It is rather the other way round. Gravity can affect the rate of acceleration.


What occurs when the objects free falls near earths surfaces?

Constant acceleration


What is the surface gravity on earth?

The force of gravity on the earth is 9.8 m/s^2
