Description

Gal (Galileo)

The Gal is a non-SI unit of acceleration used mainly in gravimetry, which is the measurement of the Earth's gravitational field. Named after Galileo Galilei, this unit is equal to 1 centimeter per second squared (1 Gal = 1 cm/s²).

It is commonly used in geophysics to express the acceleration due to gravity variations. Though not part of the SI, it remains essential in Earth sciences due to its specialized application.

Standard Gravity (g₀)

Standard gravity, denoted as g₀ or simply g, represents the average acceleration due to gravity on Earth's surface. It is defined as exactly 9.80665 m/s². This unit is widely used in physics and aerospace to measure gravitational forces and weight.

In everyday terms, it describes how strongly gravity pulls objects toward the Earth. This unit is especially important in aviation, astronautics, and weight measurement conversions.
