 ==== The Gravitational Acceleration ====
-Countless experiments near the surface of the Earth have shown that the force that the Earth exerts on a system with mass is the product of the system's mass ( $m$ ) and the local gravitational acceleration ( $\vec{g}$ ).where we have defined "up" as positive  $y$ -direction and the magnitude of the gravitational acceleration ( $g$ ) is equal to **9.81  $\dfrac{m}{s}$ .**
