It's toward the center of the Earth. We call that direction "down".
If it were accelerating due to gravity it would be vectoring down.
Yes , there is a constant acceleration is the y- axis. and that acceleration is called acceleration due to gravity or Gravity. Gravity attracts every falling body which is on y axis. that's why the gravity is on y axis which is constant
The velocity in the x direction would be constant because gravity only affects the vertical components of objects. The velocity in the y direction would increase due to the constant acceleration due to gravity. The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is always -9.81 m/s^2.
acceleration due to gravity of earth is 9.8ms-2
The acceleration between two bodies is always towards the centre of mass of the bodies in question.
If you define the "up" direction as "positive", then the acceleration is negative, because it is downward. If you define "down" as positive, then acceleration is negative. You can use any convention; just be sure to be consistent within a particular calculation, to avoid errors.
Acceleration due to gravityThe acceleration produced in the motion of a body under gravity is called Acceleration.
Gravity acceleration g=GM/r2.
If you mean acceleration due to gravity it is ~9.8m/s2
Acceleration due to gravity is negative when an object is moving up. Accl'n due to gravity is positive when an object is moving down (since gravity acts downwards on an object). ^Acceleration due to gravity is always negative, while the acceleration of the ball upward was positive due to what threw it, not gravity.
The direction of average acceleration is downwards, in the direction of gravity. This is because gravity affects all objects, even objects that are moving in other directions.
Acceleration due to gravity means the force due to weight of an object which increases due to the gravitational pull of the earth.
