Which variable is replaced with g = - 9.8 m/s² in the equation F=ma when the force is gravity?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The acceleration of objects above the earth's surface is influenced by the force of gravity. Free Fall is when objects are only experiencing the force of gravity and not other forces. Wind resistance is also known to influence the acceleration of objects when in "free fall" and thus is no longer free fall. The acceleration of objects in free fall is -9.8 m/s². The acceleration due to the force of gravity is always towards the surface of the Earth. The rate of acceleration of an object under the influence of gravity is always the same. Gravity is the name of the force but the constant, - 9.8 m/s² is the value for the acceleration.
