What symbol is used for acceleration?
-->
Is gravitational a word?
Yes. It is an adjective meaning "of, relating to, or involving gravitation." It is used terms such as "gravitational acceleration" and "gravitational lensing."
How can pendulum be used to determine local gravitational acceleration?
Measure the length and the period
What is 9.8 meters per second used for?
(.8 m/s is used for the speed after one second of gravitational acceleration on earth.
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 formula is used to calculate gravitational potential energy?
U = m g h Where U is Gravitational Potential Energy (measured in Joules) m is Mass (measured in kilograms) g is Gravitational Acceleration (~9.8 meters/second2) h is height (measured in meters)
Differentiate between universal gravitation constant abbreviated as G and acceleration due to gravity abbreviated as g.?
The universal gravitational constant, which appears in Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation, can be used to calculate the gravitational attraction between any two masses, anywhere in the universe, not just here on Earth. Whereas the acceleration of gravity, g, is the specific acceleration caused by the planet Earth, at its surface where we live.
Why does gravitational acceleration of any object near earth is the same no matter what the mass is?
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.
Is it true that the formula used to find force is F equals mv?
If 'v' is the symbol you use to denote 'acceleration' then that is the correct formula.
What is other word for units of weight?
Mass & weight are often used interchangably, but they are not th same. Weight is equal to the force acting on a mass, normally due to gravitational acceleration.
What symbol represents the speed of light?
speed does not have any symbol if you are talking about velcity then v,acceleration-a s is used as a symbol but it is generally for height.
What is the weight of a 60 kg man assuming gravity provides an acceleration of 10 m per s2?
The weight is equal to the mass, multiplied by the gravitational field.Due to the units used, the answer in this case is in newton.
