What Is This Tool?

This tool allows users to convert acceleration measurements from millimeter per square second to the CGS unit Gal (Galileo). It supports applications where low-level acceleration data need to be expressed in units commonly used in fields like gravity surveys, seismology, and precision instrument calibration.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the acceleration value in millimeter per square second
  • Select millimeter/square second as the input unit and Gal as the output unit
  • Click the convert button to view the result in Gal
  • Use the output for your geophysical, seismological, or instrumentation tasks as needed

Key Features

  • Converts acceleration values between millimeter/square second and Gal units
  • Supports applications in geophysics, seismology, and precision calibration
  • Provides quick and accurate unit transformations based on verified conversion rates
  • Browser-based and easy to use without requiring any installation
  • Ideal for reporting small accelerations and subtle variations in gravitational measurements

Examples

  • 5 millimeter/square second equals 0.5 Gal
  • 10 millimeter/square second equals 1 Gal

Common Use Cases

  • Expressing small accelerations in precision positioning systems like linear actuators
  • Reporting outputs from low-g accelerometers used in portable electronics and vibration monitoring
  • Conducting gravity surveys and reporting gravity anomalies in geophysics
  • Measuring and calibrating sensitive accelerometers for earthquake engineering and seismology
  • Describing fine-scale biomechanical motions with millimetre-level resolution

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure consistent units are used throughout your calculations to avoid scaling errors
  • Recognize the appropriate contexts for small acceleration units such as millimeter/square second and Gal
  • Use this conversion when dealing with low-magnitude accelerations common in sensor outputs and gravity measurements
  • Double-check input values and selected units before conversions to maintain accuracy

Limitations

  • Both units represent small acceleration magnitudes and are not suitable for high-acceleration scenarios
  • Precision depends on understanding the difference in scale between metric (0.001 m/s²) and CGS (0.01 m/s²) units
  • Users should be cautious when applying these units outside their intended low-magnitude contexts

Frequently Asked Questions

What does 1 millimeter per square second represent?
It is a unit of acceleration representing a change in velocity of one millimeter per second every second, equal to 0.001 m/s².

Why is the gal unit used in gravity measurements?
Gal (Galileo) is the CGS unit of acceleration commonly used to express small accelerations and variations in gravitational acceleration in geophysical surveys and precision measurements.

How do I convert millimeter/square second to Gal?
You multiply the value in millimeter per square second by 0.1 to get the equivalent acceleration value in Gal.

Key Terminology

millimeter/square second
