Acceleration due to gravityThe acceleration for any object moving under the sole influence of gravity is known as acceleration due to gravity. So, for an object of mass `m,` the acceleration experienced by it is usually denoted by the symbol g which is related to F by Newton’s second law by relation `F= mg`. Thus,`g=F/m=(GM_e)/(r_e^2)`Acceleration `g` is readily measurable as `R_e` is a known quantity. The measurement of `G` by Cavendish’s experiment (or otherwise), combined with knowledge of `g and R_e` enables one to estimate `M_e` from the above equation. This is the reason why there is a popular statement
