Freely falling acceleration is the acceleration due to gravity 'g'. It's value is 9.8 N, but for convenience it is taken as 10 N.

The free-fall acceleration on or near the Earth's surface is approximately 9.81 m/s 2 . This value indicates the rate at which an object speeds up as it falls due to gravity, irrespective of its mass. The direction of this acceleration is downward toward the center of the Earth.
