Feet per Second Squared to Standard Gravities Converter
1 foot per second squared ≈ 0.0310809502 standard gravities
A defined constant, not a local measurement. Actual gravity varies by roughly 0.5% between the poles and the equator.
1 foot per second squared equals 0.031081 standard gravities
How to convert feet per second squared to standard gravities
The g unit here means standard gravity, exactly 9.80665 m/s². It is a fixed reference, rather than the changing local gravitational acceleration.
g₀ = ft/s² × 0.03108095017One foot per second squared is 0.03108095017 standard gravities, so a single multiplication converts any value.
0.31081 g₀ ≈ 10 × 0.03108095017A defined constant, not a local measurement. Actual gravity varies by roughly 0.5% between the poles and the equator.

Sources and precision
Table results are rounded to 8 significant digits; formula constants may be rounded to 10. Worked example answers use 6 significant digits. The converter starts at 6 significant digits and lets you change display precision. Calculations use the stored factors without intermediate rounding. Exact unit definitions do not make an input measurement more precise; conventional and measured factors follow the assumptions stated here.
