How much acceleration is 242 m/s²?

242 m/s² (24.677g) is extreme acceleration — comparable to an ejection seat firing (12-20g) or a crash-test dummy at moderate impact.

Did you know? Sun surface gravity (28g) is 274 m/s².

The Sun's surface gravity is 274 m/s² — 28 times Earth's. You'd weigh 28x more standing on the Sun.

How to Convert Meter Per Second Squared to Yard Per Second Squared
