Expalin the concept of acceleration due to gravity , g ( that is when does it increases or decreases )



I would really appreciate if u don't copy from googl.e and write something by ur own knowledge of physics :)​

I will try my best to explain.

Acceleration due to gravity is usually acts on the downward side of the object. Acceleration due to gravity is caused by the Earth's Gravitational pull.

It is denoted by the variable g. The value of g is 9.8 m/s² or 10 m/s². Now, when we are on the centre of earth, acceleration of gravity is 0, when we are at the poles and less on the equator this is because the earth is not perfectly round. The actual shape of earth is called Geoid. The earth have more distance from its centre to equator that is why g is less at equator, and Earth have less distance from its centre to poles and that is why g is more at poles.

You can also say this by using Newton's gravitational law.

In which he also stated that d is inversely proportional to G (Universal Gravitational Constant)

Hope this helps you!

Pls vote for my answer!

Thank you!

Answer:

The uniform acceleration produced in a body when it falls freely under the effect of gravity alone is known as acceleration due to gravity.

Denoted by g

SI unit is m/s

  • Its value is maxium at the poles and minimum at the equator.

  • Its value decreases with increase in altitude above the surface of the earth.

  • Its value decreases with depth below the surface of the earth.
