How much acceleration is 8 mGal?

8 mGal (0g) is an imperceptible acceleration — comparable to seismic micro-tremors or tidal forces.

How to Convert Milligal to Galileo

1 milligal = 0.001 galileos

Galileo = Milligal × 0.001

Example: 8 mGal × 0.001 = 0.008 Gal

Reverse Conversion

To convert galileos back to milligals:

  • Remember, 1 galileo equals 1000 milligals.
  • To convert 0.008 Gal to mGal, multiply 0.008 x 1000, resulting in 8 mGal.

8 mGal is also equal to:

  • 0.00026247 foot per second squared
  • 0.008 gal
