* Gravity is a force: It pulls objects towards each other. The more massive an object, the stronger its gravitational pull.
* Force causes acceleration: Newton's second law of motion states that force equals mass times acceleration (F = ma). When gravity exerts a force on an object, it causes the object to accelerate.
In simpler terms: Gravity doesn't make objects move *faster*, it makes them *fall* faster. The acceleration due to gravity is a constant value (approximately 9.8 m/s² on Earth), meaning an object's velocity increases by 9.8 meters per second every second it falls.
