Converting from Gal to dam/s²

0

Information:

  • The SI standard unit for acceleration is meters per square second (m/s²).
  • G, gn, and grav typically refer to standard gravity (approx. 9.80665 m/s²).
  • Gal (Galileo) is a unit where 1 Gal = 0.01 m/s². Centigal (cGal) is 0.01 Gal.
Conversion Details & Formula

Formula:

Result (dam/s²) = Input Value (Gal) × 0.001

The conversion factor is derived from SI base unit conversions: (0.01 / 10)

Unit Relationship:

  • 1 Gal (Gal (Galileo)) = 0.001 dam/s² (Dekameter/Square Second)
  • 1 dam/s² (Dekameter/Square Second) = 1000 Gal (Gal (Galileo))

Equivalence to SI Base Unit (m/s²):

  • 1 Gal (Gal (Galileo)) = 0.01 m/s²
  • 1 dam/s² (Dekameter/Square Second) = 10 m/s²
