On the first global map of earthquake hazards, pink and red signal a more than 10 % chance of ground accelerations exceeding 25 % of the force of gravity within the next 50 years — high enough to cause widespread damage to buildings.
Most applications of the theory of gravity depend only on relative values, such as the ratio of the acceleration of the moon to that of an apple, which can be determined with much greater precision than the absolute value of G.
Stars at the very edges of spiral galaxies, for instance, rotate much faster than can be explained by Newtonian gravity alone; the picture makes sense only if astrophysicists either modify gravity itself or invoke additional gravitational acceleration due to an unknown source of mass such as dark matter.
Race data also show that Bolt sprang from the starting blocks with an acceleration of 9.5 meters per second squared — that's almost 0.97 g, the acceleration due to Earth's gravity — and was churning out a whopping 2.6 kilowatts of power (3.5 horsepower) less than 1 second later.
The tiny Rhampholeon spinosus chameleon can stick out its tongue with a peak acceleration 264 times greater than the acceleration due to gravity.
Stars in a more massive galaxy will orbit faster than those in a lower mass galaxy because the greater gravity force of the massive galaxy will cause larger accelerations of its stars.
g (the acceleration due to gravity) is taken to be -10 throughout, rather than -9.8, so an appealingly simple set of numbers results.
Chevy says the changes yield a 1.29 - inch lower center of gravity than the Camaro SS and up to 1.08 g of cornering acceleration.
The result, according to Chevy, is a 1.29 - inch lower center of gravity than the SS and up to 1.08 g of cornering acceleration.
The Getrag - produced unit, which forms part of the rear - axle assembly, has been extensively reworked with a mounting system that sits it 0.4 inch lower than on the standard SLS AMG as part of efforts to lower the car's overall center of gravity, revised software that is claimed to provide faster and more aggressive downshifts and a lower final drive for improved acceleration in combination with the increased torque loading.
The ballistic tongue projection of this 4.8 centimeter lizard (less than two inches) produced a peak acceleration 264 times greater than the acceleration due to gravity.
