Define acceleration due to gravity.

Acceleration with which a body would fall freely under the action of gravity in a vacuum is known as the acceleration due to gravity. This varies according to the distance from the centre of the earth but the accepted value is 9.81 metres per second.Variations from the accepted value may occur where, for instance, there are massive ore bodies close to the surface and these anomolies are employed in mineral exploration.

Acceleration due to gravity refers to the movement that takes place between an object or person with the use of gravity. This means that the forces of gravity can move the object or person instead of a person moving themselves or the object. Gravity can cause objects to move at a fast pace.
