Milligals to micrometers per second squared

Type a value in mGal to get it in µm/s² instantly.

10µm/s²

That's 2× as strong as a buried cavity, while an ore body is 2× stronger. A 70 kg person would weigh about 0.07138 g more or less.

What it means

How big is that anomaly?

Survey readings must be corrected for latitude, altitude, tides and terrain before the remaining anomaly means anything about the rock below.

The math

How to convert mGal to µm/s²

To convert milligals to micrometers per second squared, multiply by 10.

Example: 1 mGal × 10 = 10 µm/s².

In the other direction, 1 µm/s² = 0.1 mGal.
