Acceleration Due to Gravity Calculator

Calculate the acceleration due to gravity at different altitudes using the formula:
\( g = g_0\left(\frac{R}{R+h}\right)^2 \)
where \( g_0 \) is the acceleration at sea level, \( R \) is the Earth’s radius, and \( h \) is the altitude above the surface.

* Enter the altitude and (optionally) adjust Earth’s parameters.

Step 1: Enter Parameters

Altitude, \( h \) (m):

Example: 0 for sea level, 1000 for 1 km above sea level

Earth’s Radius, \( R \) (m):

Default: 6,371,000 m

Sea Level Gravity, \( g_0 \) (m/s²):

Default: 9.80665 m/s²
