Acceleration of gravity

Standard gravity is represented in this converter as 9.80665 meters per square second.

History: Standard gravity was defined to provide a consistent reference for weight and acceleration.

Current use: g is used in aviation, vehicles, physics, impact testing, and human acceleration tolerance.

Also written as g.

Gal

A gal equals 0.01 meters per square second.

History: The gal is named after Galileo Galilei and is used in gravimetry.

Current use: Gals are used in geophysics, gravity measurements, and seismology.

Also written as Gal.
