The acceleration due to gravity on earth doesn't depend on the mass of the falling object.
All falling objects on the same planet fall with the same acceleration.
On earth, the acceleration is 9.8 meters/sec2 .

What is the net force acting if an object is moving along a surface with a constant acceleration?
If the object is moving along a horizontal surface with a constant acceleration,then the net vertical force on it is zero, and the net horizontal force on it is(the pushing force) minus (any kinetic friction force where it rubs the surface).The numerical value of that net force is(the acceleration) times (the object's mass).
What is the amount of horizontal force required to start in motion an object sitting on a horizontal surface must be great than what?
multiply coefficient of static friction by object mass
What is the relation between surface tension and acceleration?
i think that acceleration is directly proportional to surface tension.....
In what direction is the polarization of the glare that reflects from a horizontal surface?
It is polarized at 90 degrees to the plane of incidence. If the surface is horizontal, the plane of incidence is vertical & the polarization would be horizontal.
Can acceleration happen on a frictionless surface?
yes

Which object would have the least acceleration if you pushed on it with a force of 6.5 n?
The one with the greatest mass, or the one sitting on the roughest surface.
What is a contact force between two boxes?
It is an external force that pushes on two boxes in contact on a horizontal surface. You can determine the acceleration of the boxes and the magnitude of the force between them.
As an object approaches the Earth's surface what will its acceleration be?
As an object approaches the Earth's surface, what will its acceleration be?
What is the relation between surface tension and acceleration?

When a horizontal force equal to its weight is applied to an object on a frictionless surface what is its acceleration?
9.8 meters (32.2 feet) per second2 horizontally, provided the exercise is performed on or near the Earth.
In what direction is the polarization of the glare that reflects from a horizontal surface?
It is polarized at 90 degrees to the plane of incidence. If the surface is horizontal, the plane of incidence is vertical & the polarization would be horizontal.
What surface is 90 degrees to a horizontal surface?
Perpendicular
Why a vertical datum is alevel surface not a horizontal surface?
because the datum surface is perpendicular tothe direction of gravity at any point on it.but the horizontal surface is perpendicular to vertical at one point on it :D
What is a level a tool which shows if an object has an even horizontal surface?
A level is a tool that is placed on a solid surface. There is a string hanging on the level, and if it tilts, the surface isn't an even horizontal surface. If the string doesn't tilt, the surface is even.
Why is the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Mars is about one third the acceleration due to gravity on earths surface?
Because the acceleration of gravity on the surface of any given body depends on the mass of the body and its radius ... the distance of the surface from the center. Mars' mass ... about 11% of Earth's ... and Mars' radius ... about 53% of Earth's ... combine to produce about 38% of Earth's gravitational acceleration at the surface of Mars.
