Gravity is a tricky thing to learn about, its a bit confusing. You would usually think a heavier object would fall faster than a lighter object but actually acceleration due to gravity is constant, no matter what the mass. In gravity, the mass is irrelevant to its acceleration. The only exception to this rule was if you were on a different planet, or there was a difference in air resistance (like a folded up piece of paper will fall faster than an flat piece of paper because there is more air pushing against it) Hope this helps, bye!
the gravitational pull makes the object fall quicker. it doesn't matter about weith
Strictly speaking its not the same . This equation calculates the acceleration: acceleration = ( G * ( m1 + m2 ) ) / d2 where: G = newtons gravity constant m1 = earths mass (kg) m2 = objects mass (kg) d = distance between centres of gravity (metres) The earths mass is so large however, only a significantly large object mass would make a real difference to the acceleration.
It isn't; gravitational force is minutely different around the world, such as compared between the equator and the poles. However, this difference is so minute it is hardly worth considering. The acceleration on an object is the same regardless of mass (when placed in the same place) because the formulae used for calculating the acceleration make the mass of the object redundant and it doesn't affect anything.
The force of gravity on a person or object at the surface of a planet is calculated by the product of the mass of the person or object and the gravitational constant acceleration for the planet. For Earth, the gravitational acceleration is 9.8 m / s^2.
That is called gravitational potential energy.

We know that force of gravitation is F=GMm/R2 where G is gravitational constant,M is mass of earth,m is mass of object & r is the distance between center of earth n object & F=mg where g is acceleration due to gravity. so, mg=GMm/R2 g=GM/R2 from above relation it is clear that gravitational acceleration does not depend upon mass of object.So it is same for all objects near earth.
Gravitational acceleration is always g = 9.8
Mass is the amount of matter in an object. It does not change based on gravity. Weight is the force an object exerts 'downward' due to gravitational acceleration. Force = (mass)*(acceleration). Acceleration due to gravity is less on the Moon than on Earth.
The mass of the object the force is acting on, and the gravitational acceleration where the force is acting. F = m*g, where F is the gravitational force, m is the mass of the object and g is the gravitational acceleration (on Earth it is about 9.81ms-2)
acceleration
Gravitational potential energy = (object's mass) x (acceleration of gravity) x (object's altitude)
Mass determines the gravitational force of an object. Weight is a measurement of the gravitational force being exerted on an object.

The weight of an object can be determined by multiplying the object's mass by the gravitational acceleration it experiences.W = mgwhere W is the weight, m is the mass and gis the gravitational acceleration.On earth, g is 9.8 m/s2 of 32 ft/s2.
