Acceleration Due to Gravity Experiment | g-Lab | Bari Science Lab

The gravitational pull of a celestial body depends on its mass: the greater the mass, the stronger the gravity. Proximity matters too—gravity intensifies the closer you are to the center. For instance, Earth’s gravity at 1 G equates to a free-fall acceleration of 9.8 m/s², while on the Moon, gravity is only 0.166 G, resulting in 1.625 m/s². The Sun, with its vast mass, has a gravitational acceleration of 274 m/s², making it 28 times stronger than Earth’s, keeping planets like ours in orbit. | Th
