Since the gravitational force is also proportional to mass it is equivalent to anacceleration. ... That is an object in free fall in Earth's gravity will increase its velocity (towards the centre of the Earth) by 9.81 m / s every second (ignoring air resistance etc).
Gravitational acceleration (symbolized g) is an expression used in physics to indicate the intensity of a gravitationalfield. It is expressed in meters per second squared (m/s 2 ). ... Conversely, a free-falling object near the earth's surface gains downward speed at a rate of 9.8 m/s 2 .

gravitational acceleration is the acceleration on an object caused by the force of gravitation. Neglecting friction such as air resistance, all small bodies accelerate in a gravitational field at the same rate relative to the center of mass.
