The same as the relation between acceleration and any other force.

Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

If the force happens to be gravitational, then the acceleration is down,

and the formula tells you the size of the acceleration.

If the acceleration is down and there are no rocket engines strapped

to the object, then it's a pretty safe bet that the force is gravitational,

and the formula tells you the size of the force.

Is gravitational pull the same as gravitational acceleration?

No. "Pull" is a force, not an acceleration.


What determines the size of gravitational force?

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)


How is gravitational force and mass related?

Gravitational force F = mass x g where g is the gravitational acceleration.


What is the difference between the gravitational force (g) and the acceleration due to gravity (g) in the field of physics?

The gravitational force (Fg) is the force of attraction between two objects due to their masses, while the acceleration due to gravity (g) is the acceleration experienced by an object in a gravitational field. The gravitational force is a force, measured in newtons, while the acceleration due to gravity is a measure of how quickly an object accelerates towards the Earth, typically around 9.81 m/s2.


What is the relation between force and acceleration if you keep the mass the same?

It is linear. The acceleration will be proportional to the force. F = mA


Are inertial and gravitational acceleration equal?

No, inertial and gravitational acceleration are not equal. Inertial acceleration is caused by changes in velocity due to forces acting on an object, while gravitational acceleration is caused by the force of gravity on an object due to its mass.


Is there any law that describes the relation between gravitational force and electromagnetic force?

No. There's no such law, because as far as any research findings in Physics up to the present time, there is no apparent relation between gravitational force and electromagnetic force.


How is the gravitational force on objects measured?

mass by acceleration, as in a large object that spins quite fast, like the earth, will have a lot of gravitational force.


What is acceleration deu to gravity"g"?

Acceleration due to gravity "g" is produced by a gravitational force. This can be understood through Newton's law of gravitation: Law of Gravitation: F = (G * m1 * m2) / r^2 where, F is the gravitational force, G is the gravitational contraction number (used in the gravitational formula), m1 and m2 are the masses of two objects, r is the distance between two objects. It follows from this formula that the force of gravity is universal in relation to the velocity and distance between the two objects. "g" here stands for gravitational contraction number or gravitational contraction number of gravitational space (gravitational constant). Because its value is very small, the effect of gravity on the gravitational force is not very strong. It is resorted to by humans at almost all lengths and times. Acceleration of an object with the Earth by gravity "g" is a quantity of energy, which is very small in a single month's mass in a single time. It is important to note that "g" deals with the acceleration of the object relative to Earth, and does not focus on the overall acceleration.


What is gravitational accelleration?

gravitational acceleration is the acceleration due to the force of gravity (your weight). Newton's second law is F = ma, as this can be rewritten for Weight (the gravitational force) as W = mg where g is the gravitational acceleration. On Earth g = 9.81 m/s/s. If you traveled to a different planet it would change as the force of gravity would be different thus the gravitational acceleration would be different (on the moon it is 1.6 m/s/s on mars 4 m/s/s on Jupiter 25 m/s/s)


Why would acceleration be affected by angle of inclination?

Acceleration is affected by the angle of inclination due to the component of gravitational force acting parallel to the surface. As the angle increases, a larger portion of the gravitational force contributes to accelerating an object down the slope. Conversely, at smaller angles, less gravitational force acts parallel to the incline, resulting in lower acceleration. Thus, the steeper the incline, the greater the acceleration experienced by an object moving down it.


What is the acceleration of a kg object of the gravitational force pulls downwards on it but the air resistance pushes upward with a force of N?

The acceleration of the object would be less than the acceleration due to gravity as the air resistance provides an opposing force. The net force acting on the object would be the difference between the gravitational force and the air resistance force. The acceleration can be determined using Newton's second law, F = ma.
