Convert gal (Gal) to m/s² (m/s²) with formulas, examples, and conversion tables.

Gal (Gal)

Gal

m/s² (m/s²)

m/s²

1 Gal = 0.01 m/s²

Full precision:0.01 m/s²

Step-by-Step Solution

To convert 1 gal to m/s², we divide by 100 because one meter per second squared equals exactly 100 gal.

1 meter per second squared = 100 gal

Since there are 100 gal in every meter per second squared, we divide our value by this factor:

1 ÷ 100 = 0.01 m/s²

So 1 gal = 0.01 m/s².

✓Quick check: 0.01 × 100 = 1 gal

How to Convert Gal to m/s²

To convert gal to m/s², divide the value by 100.

m/s² = Gal ÷ 100

1 meter per second squared = 100 gal

Tip: To convert m/s² back to gal, multiply by 100.

Example 1: 1 Gal = 0.01 m/s²
1 ÷ 100 = 0.01

Example 2: 5 Gal = 0.05 m/s²
5 ÷ 100 = 0.05

Example 3: 10 Gal = 0.1 m/s²
10 ÷ 100 = 0.1
