Standard Gravities to Feet per Second Squared Converter
1 standard gravity ≈ 32.1740486 feet per second squared
A defined constant, not a local measurement. Actual gravity varies by roughly 0.5% between the poles and the equator.
1 standard gravity equals 32.174 feet per second squared
How to convert standard gravities to feet per second squared
The g unit here means standard gravity, exactly 9.80665 m/s². It is a fixed reference, rather than the changing local gravitational acceleration.
ft/s² = g₀ × 32.17404856One standard gravity is 32.17404856 feet per second squared, so a single multiplication converts any value.
321.74 ft/s² ≈ 10 × 32.17404856A 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.
