How much acceleration is 1 Gal?

1 Gal (0.001g) is a very gentle acceleration — comparable to a car creeping forward from idle or a train departing a station.

How to Convert Galileo to Standard Gravity

1 galileo = 0.00101972 standard gravities

Standard Gravity = Galileo × 0.00101972

Example: 1 Gal × 0.00101972 = 0.0010197 g

Reverse Conversion

To convert standard gravities back to galileos:

  • Remember, 1 standard gravity equals 980.665 galileos.
  • To convert 0.0010197 g to Gal, multiply 0.0010197 x 980.665, resulting in 1 Gal.

1 Gal is also equal to:

  • 0.01 meter per second squared
  • 0.032808 foot per second squared
  • 1 gal
About these units

Galileo: CGS unit of acceleration equal to 1 centimeter per second squared.

Standard gravity: Nominal gravitational acceleration at Earth's surface, defined as exactly 9.80665 m/s².
