  2. g-force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-force

    With compressive force counted as negative tensile force, the rate of change of the tensile force in the direction of the g-force, per unit mass (the change between parts of the object such that the slice of the object between them has unit mass), is equal to the g-force plus the non-gravitational external forces on the slice, if any (counted ...

  3. High-g training - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-G_training

    The 20 g centrifuge at the NASA Ames Research Center. High-g training is done by aviators and astronauts who are subject to high levels of acceleration ('g'). It is designed to prevent a g-induced loss of consciousness (g-LOC), a situation when the action of g-forces moves the blood away from the brain to the extent that consciousness is lost.

  4. G force (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G_force_(disambiguation)

    G-Force, a 2009 video game based on the film; G-Force, a group from Battle of the Planets; G-Force: Guardians of Space, the second English adaptation of Gatchaman, following Battle of the Planets "G-Force", a song by Sonic Youth, from The Whitey Album; G-Force, a 1980 album by the band of the same name led by Gary Moore

  5. Specific force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_force

    It can also be called mass-specific weight (weight per unit mass), as the weight of an object is equal to the magnitude of the gravity force acting on it. The g-force is an instance of specific force measured in units of the standard gravity (g) instead of m/s², i.e., in multiples of g (e.g., "3 g").

  6. Air time (rides) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_time_(rides)

    Zero-G (where the net vertical G-force is 0) is achieved when the downward acceleration of the train is equal to that due to gravity; where the downward acceleration is greater, negative Gs arise. [citation needed] The zero-gravity roll is a roll specifically designed to create the effect of weightlessness and thereby produce air time.

  7. G-forces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/?title=G-forces&redirect=no

    G-force From the plural form : This is a redirect from a plural noun to its singular form. This redirect link is used for convenience; it is often preferable to add the plural directly after the link (for example, [[link]]s ).

  8. Weightlessness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weightlessness

    In this scenario, the gravitational force is mostly, but not entirely, diminished; anyone in the elevator would experience an absence of the usual gravitational pull, however the force is not exactly zero. Since gravity is a force directed towards the center of the Earth, two balls a horizontal distance apart would be pulled in slightly ...

  9. g-factor (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-factor_(physics)

    The spin magnetic moment of a charged, spin-1/2 particle that does not possess any internal structure (a Dirac particle) is given by [1] =, where μ is the spin magnetic moment of the particle, g is the g-factor of the particle, e is the elementary charge, m is the mass of the particle, and S is the spin angular momentum of the particle (with magnitude ħ/2 for Dirac particles).
