It is given to us that the velocity of an object in meters per second varies directly with time in seconds since the object was dropped, as represented by the table (which is not given to us). The acceleration due to gravity is the constant of variation. Now, we know, from basic physics that the value of the acceleration due to gravity in the SI unit is 9.8 m/s^2. Therefore, the second option is the correct option.

Answer:

The constant value set for the average acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

In the absence of air resistance, every object in the free fall will hit the ground at the same time if dropped from the same height, irrespective of the mass.

The acceleration due to gravity is a constant that is set based on the location where the object is made to fall freely.

The symbol g is used in an equation for the constant of acceleration due to gravity of a freely falling object on Earth.

On Earth, the constant value set for the average acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s²

Hence, The correct answer is 9.8
