    F = GMm/r^2 but we don't want force we want acceleration. F = ma combining the two ma = GMm/r^2 cancelling m from both sides a = GM/r^2 where G is the universal gravitational constant M is the mass of Saturn and r is the radius of Saturn. g (Saturn) = a = (6.67x10^-11m^3kg^-1s^-2) (5.68x10^26 kg) / (5.82x10^7m) ^2 g = 11.18 m/s^2 round to 11.2 m/s^2
