  2. g-force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-force

    If the pilot were suddenly to pull back on the stick and make his plane accelerate upwards at 9.8 m/s 2, the total g‑force on his body is 2 g, half of which comes from the seat pushing the pilot to resist gravity, and half from the seat pushing the pilot to cause his upward acceleration—a change in velocity which also is a proper ...

  3. Load factor (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_factor_(aeronautics)

    For example, an observer on board an aircraft performing a turn with a load factor of 2 (i.e. a 2 g turn) will see objects falling to the floor at twice the normal acceleration of gravity. In general, whenever the term load factor is used, it is formally correct to express it using numbers only, as in "a maximum load factor of 4".

    showing gravity force and contact force commonly referred to as the g-force. G-forces (gravitational forces) create the so-called "butterfly" sensation felt as a car goes down a gradient. An acceleration of 1 standard gravity (9.8 m/s 2) is the usual force of Earth's gravitational pull exerted on a person while

  5. 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.
