In physics, G-force is used to describe the acceleration of an object relative to Earth's gravity. Assuming you are sitting at a desk or standing on solid ground right now, you are in a 1 G environment; Earth's standard force of gravity (G) is pushing against you as it normally does.

What is G's value in physics?
In the first equation above, g is referred to as the acceleration of gravity. Its value is 9.8 m/s2 on Earth. That is to say, the acceleration of gravity on the surface of the earth at sea level is 9.8 m/s2.
What is 2 g's in physics?
Imagine you had a car that could achieve twice the acceleration of free-fall -- that would be 19.6ms2 (and that would be amazing). That would be called acceleration of 2 g's. It is convenience when acceleration is significantly larger than the acceleration due to gravity to describe it as a multiple of 1 g.
How do you find G's in physics?
Determine the G-forces on the object by dividing its average acceleration by the acceleration due to gravity: 32 ft/s². A car accelerating at 37.2 ft/s² experiences 37.2 / 32 = 1.16 G's.
How do you explain G's?
A g-force is a measure of acceleration. 1G is the acceleration we feel due to the force of gravity. It's what keeps our feet firmly planted on the ground. Gravity is measured in metres per second squared, or m/s2.
