a constant in newtons equation of gravity: 6.67×10^(-11) \frac{n m^2}{kg^2}
the acceleration of gravity near the earths surface: 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

The acceleration of gravity near the Earth's surface, \(9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}\), is represented by \(g\). The constant in Newton's equation of gravity, \(6.67\times 10^{- 11}\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{kg^{2}}\), is represented by \(G\).

Answer:

g: The acceleration of gravity near the Earth's surface; \(9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}\)
G: A constant in Newton's equation of gravity; \(6.67\times 10^{-11}\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{kg^{2}}\)
