17.1 Determination of the force that generates a known weight in
the gravitational field of the earth
F = G * g [Newton]
G = weight in kg
G = acceleration due to gravity 9.81 m / sec
Dependent on location
With the formula 9.780327 * (1 + 0.0053024 * sin2 (Y) -0.0000058 * sin2 (2Y)) - 3,086 / 1000000 * height you can calculate the
gravitational acceleration.
Determining the amount and the latitude
1. Open the Internet http://gpso.de/maps/
2. In the blue field enter the address of the site and click OK
3. In the right red box you can use the latitude in the form xx xx ° XX '"
4. And read the middle gray area the height in meters.
