Acceleration due to gravity is defined as the constant acceleration produced in a body when it falls freely under the effect of gravity alone.

It is represented with the letter g and has a value of 9.8 m/s^2 on the surface of the earth.

This acceleration is gained by an object due to the gravitational force.
