state and derive acceleration due to gravity (g)
Answers
Answer:
Formula of Acceleration due to Gravity
f = force between two bodies, G = universal gravitational constant (6.67×10-11 Nm2/kg2) m = mass of the object, ... h = height at which the body is from the surface of the earth.
Formula: g = GM/r2
Values of g in SI: 9.806 ms-2
Dimensional Formula: M0L1T-2

Answer:
The acceleration produced in a freely falling body by the gravitational pull of the earth is called the acceleration due to gravitation.
We know that,
Force = Mass × Acceleration
F=m×a
a=
m
F
…..1
Where F is the force on the object of mass m dropped from a distance r from the centre of earth of mass M.
So, force exerted by the earth on the object is
F=G
r
2
M×m
...2
M = Mass of Earth
m = mass of object
r = distance of object from centre of earth
Now, from equation 1 and 2,
a=G
r
2
×m
M×m
a=G
r
2
M
Now, from above,
a=g= Acceleration due to gravity
We also see that, although force is depending on the mass of the object,
F=G
r
2
M×m
But acceleration due to gravity is independent of the mass.
g=G
r
2
M
