What else can I help you with?
Is acceleration due to gravity act on a body resting on a table zero?
Yes, when an object is resting on a table, the acceleration due to gravity acts vertically downward, but the table exerts an equal and opposite force (normal force) on the object in the upward direction, canceling out the effect of gravity. Therefore, the net acceleration on the body is zero.
How is acceleration due to gravity be zero in a parachute?
In the case of a parachute, the person and parachute fall at a constant speed once the forces acting on them are balanced. This means that the net acceleration, including gravity, is zero. Gravity is still acting on the person and parachute, but it is balanced by the drag force exerted by the parachute, resulting in a constant speed descent.
What hasa zero velocity yet a non-zero acceleration?
For example, an object thrown upwards, when it is at its highest point. This situation is only possible for an instant - if the acceleration is non-zero, the velocity changes, and can therefore not remain at zero.
What is equivalent of acceleration due to gravity?
acceleration due to gravity of earth is 9.8ms-2
What force that can change when acceleration due to gravity changes?
I suppose you are asking about what forces change when acceleration due to gravity changes. In this case, the formula for forces concerning acceleration due to gravity is as such: fg=mg. When acceleration due to gravity(g) changes, it affects the force of gravity which is also known as the weight of the object. This is shown as fg.
Why is acceleration due to gravity zero at the centre of the Earth?
Acceleration due to the earth's gravity is zero at the center of the Earth because at that point the mass of the earth is equally distributed in all directions, so pulling equally in all directions for a net zero pull. Simplistically, acceleration due to gravity decreases as distance from the center decreases. At the center the distance is zero, hence gravity is zero.
Is earth's gravity the same on the surface as it is in the center of the earth?
No. At the centre of the earth the acceleration due to gravity is ZERO

Is it possible for the body to have zero velocity and non zero average acceleration?
Yes, satellite orbiting the Earth in a Geo-Stationary Orbit has 0 Velocity relative to a point on the Earth, BUT it experience the 'Pull' (acceleration) of Gravity, which prevents it from escaping its Orbit. The Gravity is LESS than that at the surface of the Earth, but not 0. The feeling of WEIGHTLESSNESS is not due to Zero Gravity, but due to the fact that Object is FALLING through its Orbit. A Person Falling "feels" Zero Gravity.
Is it possible for a body to have zero velocity and non-zero acceleration?
Answer:Yes, but only instantaneously.Consider a thrown ball moving directly upward. At the highest point of its trajectory, the instanataneous velocity (the velocity at that precise instant) is zero even while the acceleration due to gravity remains non zero.
What hasa zero velocity yet a non-zero acceleration?
For example, an object thrown upwards, when it is at its highest point. This situation is only possible for an instant - if the acceleration is non-zero, the velocity changes, and can therefore not remain at zero.

What is Saturn's value for acceleration due to gravity?
Acceleration due to gravity on Saturn = 11.171 m/s2 (9.807 m/s2 on Earth)

When a ball is thrown upwards is there any change in its acceleration all throughout its motion?
Yes, the acceleration of the ball will change. Initially, the acceleration is downward (due to gravity) while the ball is speeding up. As it reaches its peak height, the acceleration becomes zero. On the way back down, the acceleration is again downward and the ball speeds up due to gravity.
If after an object is thrown no other fone and ads on it except gravity What are the vertical and horizontal components of its acceleration vector?
The vertical component of the acceleration vector is the acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m/s^2 downward). The horizontal component of the acceleration vector is zero since there is no acceleration acting in the horizontal direction (assuming no external forces).
