Galilei

Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-005867

A unit of acceleration, equal to one centimeter per second squared (cm/s²). It is primarily used in gravimetry to express the acceleration due to gravity. One Galilei is equivalent to 0.01 meters per second squared, and the standard acceleration due to gravity at the Earth's surface is approximately 980.665 Galilei.
