Frequently asked questions

How many feet/second² are in one standard gravity?

One standard gravity is 32.1740486 ft/s², so 100 g is 3217.40486 ft/s².

What is the formula to convert standard gravity to feet/second²?

ft/s² = g × 32.1740486. Multiply the value in standard gravity by 32.1740486 to get feet/second².

How do I convert feet/second² back to standard gravity?

g = ft/s² × 0.0310809502, so 1 ft/s² is 0.0310809502 g. The ft/s² to g page carries the same table in that direction.
