  2. Gravity of Earth - Wikipedia

    It does not include the reduction of constraint force that we perceive as a reduction of gravity due to the rotation of Earth, and some of gravity being counteracted by centrifugal force. There are significant uncertainties in the values of r and m 1 as used in this calculation, and the value of G is also rather difficult to measure precisely.

  3. Standard gravity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_gravity

    The standard acceleration of gravity or standard acceleration of free fall, often called simply standard gravity and denoted by ɡ 0 or ɡ n, is the nominal gravitational acceleration of an object in a vacuum near the surface of the Earth.

    In SI writing style, this may be written 40 Mm (40 megametres). An inch is defined as exactly 25.4 mm . Using scientific notation, this value can be uniformly expressed to any desired precision, from the nearest tenth of a millimeter 2.54 × 10 1 mm to the nearest nanometer 2.540 0000 × 10 1 mm , or beyond.

  5. Gravity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity

    In physics, gravity (from Latin gravitas 'weight' [1]) is a fundamental interaction primarily observed as a mutual attraction between all things that have mass.Gravity is, by far, the weakest of the four fundamental interactions, approximately 10 38 times weaker than the strong interaction, 10 36 times weaker than the electromagnetic force, and 10 29 times weaker than the weak interaction.

    Various collaborative online encyclopedias were attempted before the start of Wikipedia, but with limited success. [19] Wikipedia began as a complementary project for Nupedia, a free online English-language encyclopedia project whose articles were written by experts and reviewed under a formal process. [20]

    Spanish was one of the official languages in the Philippines in Southeast Asia until 1973. In the 1987 constitution, Spanish was removed as an official language (replaced by English), and was listed as an optional/voluntary language along with Arabic. It is currently spoken by a minority and taught in the school curriculum.
