Converting from Foot per Second Squared (fps²) to Standard Gravity (g) in Acceleration

What is Foot per Second Squared (fps²)

Foot per Second Squared (fps²) is a unit of acceleration that represents the change in velocity in feet per second over a period of one second.

What is Standard Gravity (g)

Standard Gravity (g) is a unit of acceleration commonly used in physics to represent the acceleration due to gravity on Earth's surface. It is equal to approximately 32.17405 feet per second squared.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from fps² to g, you can use the following formula:

g=32.17405fps2​

To convert from g to fps², you can use this formula:

fps2=32.17405×g

Examples
