g-unit, acceleration

G-force or force of acceleration, is used to express the load a person or object is subjected to when experiencing acceleration. The use of the letter "G" is derived from the word gravitation. The unit is used both for the large forces of acceleration experienced when an airplane takes a steep turn or quick dive, as for the forces a racing car driver experiences when accelerating in a straight line. The g-forces are measured using a g-force meter.
