QUANTUM SNARK

An object in free fall accelerates at 9.8 m/s² near Earth’s surface. Gravity doesn’t do gentle.

✓ TRUE FACT
Near sea level, gravitational acceleration is about 9.81 m/s², but it varies slightly with latitude and altitude. Air resistance can reduce the acceleration dramatically at high speeds.
