Convert Meters per second squared to Standard gravity

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

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

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