As per Newton's law, Force = mass × acceleration = m×a .....................(1)
where m is mass and a is acceleration
Gravitational force acting on a mass m on earth's surface = G (m×M)/R2 = m × GM/R2 ..........................(2)
where G is Gravitational force constant, M is mass of earth and R is radius of earth
By comparing (1) and (2), acceleration due to gravity = a = (G×M)/R2
