Surface Gravity Calculator

Surface Gravity Calculator calculator can be used to calculate the surface gravity of a celestial body based on its mass and radius.

Input Parameters

Calculation Results

Calculation Formula

g = (G * M) / R²

Where:
g = surface gravity (m/s²)
G = gravitational constant (6.67430 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kg/s²)
M = mass of the celestial body (kg)
R = radius of the celestial body (m)

Result

Surface Gravity: 0 m/s²

  4. The result will be displayed in meters per second squared (m/s²).

Understanding Surface Gravity

Surface gravity is the gravitational force exerted on an object at the surface of a celestial body. It depends on the mass and radius of the body. The formula used to calculate surface gravity is:

g = (G * M) / R²

Where:

  • g is the surface gravity.
  • G is the gravitational constant (6.67430 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kg/s²).
  • M is the mass of the celestial body.
  • R is the radius of the celestial body.

This calculator can be used to determine the surface gravity of planets, moons, stars, and other celestial bodies.
