much

that

one

of

the

most

interactions

in

our

More surprisingly,

the

acceleration

...

is

...

also

...

almost

...

exactly

...

the

same

on

every

The

gravity

on

any

object

in

freefall

near

the

earth's

surface

...

is

well

approximated

by

the

value

of

9.8

The

is

so

widely

used

in
