Definition von acceleration of gravity im Englisch Englisch wörterbuch
The acceleration of a body, equal to 9 8 meters per second per second (m/s2), caused by the force of gravity near the surface of the Earth
acceleration of a free falling body under the influence of gravity (equal to approximately 32 feet per second)
the gravitational acceleration of a freely falling object, expressed in terms of the rate of increase of velocity per second: on earth 980 665 cm (32 l7 ft ) per second per second is the standard
The acceleration of freely falling bodies under the influence of terrestrial gravity, equal to approximately 9.81 meters (32 feet) per second per second
Any acceleration due entirely to gravity, e g , in a vacuum a freely falling body falls toward the earth's center at a velocity of 32 2 feet the first second, and an increased velocity of 32 2 feet per second the second second (velocity at the end of the second second is 64 4 feet per second, etc ) This is commonly expressed as 32 2 feet per second per second, or 32 2 feet per second square In air the rate of acceleration is modified by the force due to tair resistance A freely falling body will finally reach a speed at which the force of gravity and air resistance are equal and no greater speed is gained, i e , terminal velocity
The acceleration imparted to a body by the gravitational field of some small body, planet, star, galaxy, or cluster of galaxies; a measure of the intensity of a gravitational field
