- close to free-fall acceleration near Earth's surface, before air resistance
- if held steadily, reaches 100 km/h from rest in about 2.83 seconds
Unit Story
Standard gravity
Standard gravity is exactly 9.80665 meters per second squared. It is a reference value; local gravity varies slightly with latitude and elevation.
Milligal
A milligal is one thousandth of a gal. It is sensitive enough for gravity surveys that help reveal underground structures and density changes.
