The relation between acceleration due to gravity,

g

, mass of the earth,

M

, and the distance from the centre of the earth to the surface,

r

is given below.

g = \frac{G \times M}{r^{2}}

It is clear that the acceleration due to gravity does not depend upon the mass of the body. So,

g

is independent of the mass of the body.
