About these units

Standard Gravity (g)

Definition
Standard gravity (g) is the nominal acceleration of free fall at Earth’s surface, defined as 9.80665 m/s².
History
It was standardised so weights and forces could be defined consistently.
Current use
It expresses g-forces in aviation, vehicle dynamics, and spaceflight.

Inch per Second Squared (in/s²)

Definition
Inches per second squared (in/s²) is a small imperial acceleration unit for fine motion.
History
It is the small-scale counterpart of feet per second squared.
Current use
It describes acceleration in precision mechanisms and motion control.
