Is 1 g of force a lot?
Is 1 g of force a lot? A G-force of 1g is equal to the conventional value of gravitational acceleration on Earth which amounts to 9.8 m/s2 (meter per second squared). In other words, it is the force a person (driver, in our case) can experience when they're accelerating or braking.
Can a human survive 9.5 gs?
We experience higher or lower g forces when we are rapidly changing speeds or directions. Normal humans can withstand no more than 9 g's, and even that for only a few seconds.
Can a pilot pull 10 gs?
While commercial flights exert only very minimal positive and negative G-forces on passengers, several orders of magnitude greater are the G-forces experienced by astronauts, fighter pilots and stunt pilots. These types of pilots can experience brief periods of extreme forces of nine and 10 Gs.
