How to convert standard gravity to gal
Enter your acceleration in standard gravity and get the equivalent in gal instantly. Key reference points: standard gravity (1g) is exactly 9.80665 m/s², a car braking hard reaches about 0.8g, and astronauts experience up to 3g during a Space Shuttle launch.
G-force describes human-experienced acceleration; the gal is a geophysics unit where 1 g equals 980.665 gal, used for gravity surveys and seismometer calibration.
