Converting from Galileo (cm/s²) to Meter per Second Squared (m/s²)

What is Galileo (cm/s²)

Galileo, represented as cm/s², is a unit of acceleration commonly used in physics. It measures the rate of change of velocity in centimeters per second squared.

What is Meter per Second Squared (m/s²)

Meter per second squared, denoted as m/s², is another unit of acceleration used in the metric system. It quantifies the change in velocity over time in meters per second squared.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from Galileo to Meter per second squared, you can use the following formula:

1(cm/s²)=0.01(m/s²)

And to convert from Meter per second squared to Galileo, the formula is:

1(m/s²)=100(cm/s²)

Examples

1. Converting 16 cm/s² to m/s²:

16(cm/s²)×0.01=0.16(m/s²)

2. Converting 10 m/s² to cm/s²:

10(m/s²)×100=1000(cm/s²)

3. If the acceleration is given as 15 cm/s², its equivalent in m/s² would be:

15(cm/s²)×0.01=0.15(m/s²)

Conclusion

Use the provided conversion formulas and examples to easily switch between Galileo (cm/s²) and Meter per second squared (m/s²) for your acceleration calculations.
