  2. g-force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-force

    The g-force acting on an object under acceleration can be much greater than 1 g, for example, the dragster pictured at top right can exert a horizontal g-force of 5.3 when accelerating. The g-force acting on an object under acceleration may be downwards, for example when cresting a sharp hill on a roller coaster.

  3. Physics of roller coasters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physics_of_roller_coasters

    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 standing still.

  4. Load factor (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

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

    Variation of the load factor n with the bank angle θ, during a coordinated turn.Pink force is the apparent weight on board.. The load factor, and in particular its sign, depends not only on the forces acting on the aircraft, but also on the orientation of its vertical axis.

  5. 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).

  6. Specific force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_force

    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"). Type of acceleration
