What this calculator does
Converts a measurement given in gals into metre per second squareds using the defined conversion factor.
What your result means
The same quantity expressed in m/s² instead of Gal. Nothing about the measurement itself changes.
Formula and working
m/s² = Gal × 0.01
- 1
Start with your value
100 Gal
- 2
Convert to meter per second squared
100 × 0.01 = 1 m/s²
- 3
Convert into meters per second squared
1 ÷ 1 = 1 m/s²
- 4
Result
100 Gal = 1 m/s²
Frequently asked questions
Symbols and assumptions
- Gal
- Input unit — gal
- m/s²
- Output unit — metre per second squared
- • Both units measure acceleration, so the physical quantity is unchanged by the conversion.
- • The relationship is exactly linear: 1 Gal = 0.01 m/s².
- • Values are converted through the SI base unit for this quantity rather than pair by pair.
