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.

Gravitational acceleration is simply acceleration due to gravity.
The period of a pendulum (in seconds) is 2(pi)√(L/g), where L is the length and g is the acceleration due to gravity. As acceleration due to gravity increases, the period decreases, so the smaller the acceleration due to gravity, the longer the period of the pendulum.
That it is exactly 32f/sec^2 not sure. That it is constant depends on the Earths' mass which is fairly constant.
Example: x axis = time, y axis = distance, plot values of s, when t = say 0 to 10, step 1 > If time is the variable, and distance the dependent, you should have been given a figure for acceleration (g), without which, you cant plot the graph. > Acceleration due to earths gravity (g) at earths surface radius is generally taken as = 9.82 metres per second / per second. > Use: s = (u*t) + (0.5 * g * t2) > where: s = distance u = initial velocity g = acceleration due to gravity (9.82 (m/s)/s) t = elapsed time
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
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.
Jupiter's gravity is about 2.5 times stronger than Earth's gravity. This means that a person weighing 100 pounds on Earth would weigh around 250 pounds on Jupiter.
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.
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
The rotation of the Earth causes a centrifugal force that slightly reduces the effective acceleration due to gravity at the equator, making it slightly weaker compared to areas closer to the poles. This difference is relatively small, but it does result in a slightly lower gravitational pull at the equator compared to the poles.
If the elevator accelerates, the acceleration will provide an additional apparent force.
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
Constant acceleration
The force of gravity on the earth is 9.8 m/s^2
Acceleration does not effect gravity. It is rather the other way round. Gravity can affect the rate of acceleration.
Different air pressure, so there is more/less air resistance.
