Question

(i) What do you understand by the term 'acceleration due to gravity of earth'?
(ii) What is the usual value of the acceleration due to gravity of earth?
​(iii) State the SI unit of acceleration due to gravity.

Answer 1

Explanation:

The acceleration which is gained by an object because of gravitational force is called its acceleration due to gravity. ... Acceleration due to gravity is a vector, which means it has both a magnitude and a direction. The acceleration due to gravity at the surface of Earth is represented by the letter g.

value=9.8ms2

m/s2

The acceleration which is gained by an object because of gravitational force is called its acceleration due to gravity. Its SI unit is m/s2
