Convert Feet per square second to G-force
Unit definitions
Feet per square second
A foot is a unit of length equal to $0.304\,8$ meters. One foot is equal to $12$ inches. Feet per square second represents change in velocity of an object in feet per second, per second.
G-force
G-force is a measure of acceleration expressed as multiples of standard gravity. $1\ \text{g}$ equals $9.806\,65\ \text{ms}^{-2}$, and $2\ \text{g}$ equals $2 \times 9.806\,65\ \text{ms}^{-2}$. G-force is often used to describe the sensation of acceleration.
How to convert Feet per square second to G-force
$$\text{Acceleration}_{\text{g}} = \text{Acceleration}_{\text{ft/s²}} \cdot 0.03108095017156725283353642681241810$$
Examples
Example 1
Convert $20.0\ \text{ft/s²}$ to $\text{g}$.
$$\text{Acceleration}_{\text{g}} = 20.0 \cdot 0.03108095017156725283353642681241810$$
$$\text{Acceleration}_{\text{g}} = 0.621619$$
$$\therefore \ 20.0\ \text{ft/s²} = 0.621619 \ \text{g}$$
Example 2
Convert $75.0\ \text{ft/s²}$ to $\text{g}$.
$$\text{Acceleration}_{\text{g}} = 75.0 \cdot 0.03108095017156725283353642681241810$$
$$\text{Acceleration}_{\text{g}} = 2.331071$$
$$\therefore \ 75.0\ \text{ft/s²} = 2.331071 \ \text{g}$$
Example 3
Convert $100.0\ \text{ft/s²}$ to $\text{g}$.
$$\text{Acceleration}_{\text{g}} = 100.0 \cdot 0.03108095017156725283353642681241810$$
$$\text{Acceleration}_{\text{g}} = 3.108095$$
$$\therefore \ 100.0\ \text{ft/s²} = 3.108095 \ \text{g}$$
Example 4
Convert $140.0\ \text{ft/s²}$ to $\text{g}$.
$$\text{Acceleration}_{\text{g}} = 140.0 \cdot 0.03108095017156725283353642681241810$$
$$\text{Acceleration}_{\text{g}} = 4.351333$$
$$\therefore \ 140.0\ \text{ft/s²} = 4.351333 \ \text{g}$$
Example 5
Convert $200.0\ \text{ft/s²}$ to $\text{g}$.
$$\text{Acceleration}_{\text{g}} = 200.0 \cdot 0.03108095017156725283353642681241810$$
$$\text{Acceleration}_{\text{g}} = 6.21619$$
$$\therefore \ 200.0\ \text{ft/s²} = 6.21619 \ \text{g}$$
