The constant k is not equal to 1 by definition, but, if we measure the weight, the space and the time with some other scaled units, the ratio results 1.

So we can accept that the gravitational mass is the same as the inertial mass, and we can denote by m the value . This is the Equivalence Principle as formulated by Galileo.1 We will see that it assumes a fundamental role in the formulation of General Relativity.

Let us return to the formula

seen as We can define the gravitational acceleration as the vector
