Question

what is the formula to calculate acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the earth?​

Answer 1

Answer:

formula for calculating acceleration due to gravity: g = G*M/R^2, where g is the acceleration due to gravity, G is the universal gravitational constant, M is mass, and R is distance.

Acceleration due to gravity is the acceleration gained by an object due to the gravitational force. Its SI unit is m/s2. It has both magnitude and direction, hence, it’s a vector quantity. Acceleration due to gravity is represented by g. The standard value of g on the surface of the earth at sea level is 9.8 m/s2.

Answer 2

Answer:

formula for calculating acceleration due to gravity: g = G*M/R^2.

Explanation:

The mass of the moon is  7.35 × 1022Kg.The radius of the moon is  1.74×106mSubstituting the values in the formula we get-g= 6.67×10−11 × 7.35 × 1022 / (1.74×106)2Thus, the value of g on the moon is g=1.625m/s2.
