Results

Result 9.80665 m/s²

1 g equals 9.80665 m/s²

What this tool does

Acceleration shows up as a g-force in vehicle and aerospace data, as m/s² in physics, as (km/h)/s in car reviews and as gal in seismology. Standard gravity is defined as exactly 9.80665 m/s², which is the value used here; the real local value varies by about 0.5 % between the equator and the poles, which matters for precision weighing but not for most calculations.
