-- Acceleration of gravity, on or near Earth, is 9.8 meters ( 32.2 feet) per second2.
-- Speed, neglecting the effects of air resistance, is
9.8 meters (32.2 feet) per second
multiplied by
(number of seconds since the object was dropped)
regardless of the mass, weight, or size of the object.

What are the effects of acceleration due to gravity on the time period of a pendulum?
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.
What is the difference between gravitational acceleration and acceleration?
Gravitational acceleration is simply acceleration due to gravity.
What is mass multiplied by gravity?
Force or weight Force= mass X acceleration gravity is an acceleration (9.8m/s2) Weight = mass X acceleration due to gravity
Why gravitational constant is constant while when acceleration due to gravity is change?
gravity of earth is constant in any plane but the acceleration may vary becoz of irregular plane
How do you work out weight mathematically?
Weight is mass times acceleration due to gravity.
