How Does One Convert Centrifugal Force (CF) To Weight Units (G)?
Your problem might be that you are confusing two things, force (or weight) and mass. (Basic background info begins.) An object’s mass is constant. It has the same mass no matter if it is on your breakfast table or floating in space. An object’s weight is the force that object exerts downward on whatever is holding it up. It varies depending on the gravitational field the object is in (assuming it is stationary.) An object that weighs a lot on Earth weighs a lot less on the moon. So. There are two basic systems of measurement, Imperial (or British) and the SI (Systeme Internationale, aka the metric system). A gram is the SI unit for mass (not force.) The SI unit for force is newtons, or N. A newton is defined as the force required to accelerate a one KG (kilogram) mass by 1 meter per second squared. At the Earth’s surface (but not in other places like on the Moon), a one KG mass will fall with an acceleration of 9.8 meters per second squared. In other words, the mass falls with the forc
