This document is a physical science submission by Nayana K.V. to Mrs. Linimol K.S. on the topic of acceleration due to gravity. It introduces Newton's law of gravitation and discusses how gravitational force gives rise to acceleration when a body is in free fall. It defines acceleration due to gravity as the acceleration imparted to a freely falling body by the Earth's gravitational pull. It notes key factors that affect the value of g, including distance from the Earth's center, and provides data on how g varies for different planets and elevations above Earth's surface.
