Convert Standard gravity to Meters per second squared

Standard gravity → Meters per second squared
g × 9.80665 = m/s² m/s² × 0.1019716 = g

To convert standard gravity (g) to meters per second squared (m/s²), multiply the standard gravity value by 9.80665. 1 g = 9.80665 m/s², and 1 m/s² = 0.1019716 g. The conversion is a linear scaling with no offset, so the same factor applies to any value.

Going the other way? Convert m/s² to g.
