Why is the gravitational constant 'g' higher in the Netherlands?

My intuition led me to think that, since this measurement was taken below sea level, less mass would count towards gravity.

Of course, it could be a random effect. I have not checked the altitude of other locations listed. I will do it, however, to satisfy my curiosity, if there is no reasonable explanation.

Edit: the g in the table is not the gravitational constant, but the gravitational acceleration. My bad.

How to find the mass of a planet not knowing the gravitational constant?

So I found this problem, I know the gravity of earth g0, I found the orbital speed of one satellite using this equation G.Me.ms/**(Re+**h)^2=ms/a

(Me

is the mass of earth, ms is the mass of the satellite, Re is the radius of earth, h

is the height of the satellite)

and by taking h**=0**

I found the gravity of earth G.Me/Re^2**=g0** so I found G.Me**=Re^2.g0** and then I found the orbital speed v**=**Re.√(g0/(Re+h)) and then I calculated Kepler's third law. but the last questions says deduce the mass of the earth Me

, How can I do this by not knowing the gravitational constant?

I'm sorry for bad English and for the bad formatting, and thanks a lot

Deceleration, gravitational acceleration constant and shell floatiness

Does each ship have the same gravitational acceleration constant, but different muzzle velocity and, more importantly, different shell deceleration?

Asking because Fletcher has higher muzzle velocity than Jutland, but its shell trajectory felt more floaty and arched, and the terminal velocity at around detection range (~6km) seems, to my naked eyes, slower than Jutland.

And Kitakaze felt a tad floatier than Udaloi/Grozovoi/Smolensk too. Somewhat strange as I was expecting a bit more flat trajectory with the Kita, due to the slightly higher MV.

WOT gravitational constant

As you probably noticed the g in WOT is much higher than 9.8. But what is it exactly? I've found an very old table (2011) claiming that different tanks have different gravitational constants. But I cannot find further info on this.

https://preview.redd.it/b4ghfu5mcgc51.png?width=892&format=png&auto=webp&s=f978b1a565ecbf26081be3d37b6b339d25df35b3

Theoretically you could calculate the gravitational constant from shell velocity and max range but the max range of FV304 is 10km on Tanks.gg which is definitely not the number we want.

What is the meaning of the gravitational constant G in general relativity?

Hello, I just recently started learning more about the ideas of general relativity and was wondering, which "meaning" the gravitational constant G had in this theory.

As far as I understand, in general relativity gravity isn't an actual force but rather a noticable effect due to the curvature of space. I am now wondering, which meaning G has in general relativity. Does it have no meaning at all or is does it, loosely speaking, describe how much space is curved by mass?

OW Gravitational constant

the OW universe sports a Gravitational constant (G) of 1.19217858Γ—10^-4 hearthian g meters per kilogram

which is considerably higher than our universes 6.67408 Γ— 10-11 m3 kg-1 s-2

this was calculated using the observed .8 gravity of asah twin and its diameter of 331meters (before sand is pulled away) to calculate its volume and then the density of sand to find its mass, this was plugged into the gravitional equation resulting in the figure above

update 1 hearthian g is approx. 15.223 m/s^2

making the OW G 1.8148*10^-3 m^3 kg^-1 s^-2
