How this system works

Standard gravity gn is defined as 9.80665 m/s² exactly — a conventional value, not the local acceleration at your feet. The gal (or galileo) is a CGS unit still used in gravimetry: 1 Gal = 0.01 m/s².

Base unit: metre per second squared. Metre per second² is SI; Standard gravity is Other.
