Under the action of gravitational force, the body begins to accelerate toward the earth's centre which is at a distance 'r' from the test mass. ... Its value near the surface of the earth is 9.8 ms-2. Therefore, the acceleration due to gravity (g) is given by = GM/r2.
Values of g in SI: 9.806 ms-2
Values of g in CGS: 980 cm s-2
Formula: g = GM/r2
Dimensional Formula: M0L1T-2
