Question

derive an formula for Acceleration due to gravity ​

Answer 1

Answer:

These two laws lead to the most useful form of the formula for calculating acceleration due to gravity: g = G*M/R^2, where g is the acceleration due to gravity, G is the universal gravitational constant, M is mass, and R is distance.

Answer 2

Answer :-

According to the gravitational law

$\sf F = \frac{GMm}{R^2}$ - i

According to Newton's second law of motion -

F = ma - ii

From equation i and ii :-

$\sf ma = \frac{GMm}{R^2}$

$\sf a = \frac{GM}{R^2}$

This a is known as acceleration due to gravity.

$\boxed{\sf a = g = \frac{GM}{R^2}}$
