How much acceleration is 490 g?

490 g (490g) is violent acceleration — comparable to a bullet being fired or a high-g centrifuge test.

How to Convert Standard Gravity to Galileo

1 standard gravity = 980.665 galileos

Galileo = Standard Gravity × 980.665

Example: 490 g × 980.665 = 480530 Gal

Reverse Conversion

To convert galileos back to standard gravities:

  • Remember, 1 galileo equals 0.00101972 standard gravities.
  • To convert 480530 Gal to g, multiply 480530 x 0.00101972, resulting in 490 g.

490 g is also equal to:

  • 4805.3 meter per second squared
  • 15765 foot per second squared
  • 480530 gal
About these units

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

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