Answer:

384 inches per second squared.

Explanation:

Using the conversion:

1 feet per second squared = 12 inches per second squared.

As per the statement:

The acceleration(a) of an object due to gravity is 32 feet per second squared

⇒a = 32 feet per second squared

We have to find a in inches per second squared.

Using above conversion;

1 feet per second squared = 12 inches per second squared

then;

32 feet per second squared = 384 inches per second squared.

Therefore, acceleration due to gravity in inches per second squared is, 384 inches per second squared.
