In physics, gravitational acceleration is the acceleration of an object in free fall within a vacuum (and thus without experiencing drag). At a fixed point on the surface of Earth, the gravity results from the combined effect of gravitation and the centrifugal force from Earth's rotation. At different points on Earth's surface, the free fall acceleration ranges from 9.764 to 9.834 m/s2.
