How fast do you have to go to experience G-force?
One G of force is equivalent to 22 miles per hour.
What would happen if you were to travel at the speed of light?
Firstly, the physical consequence of traveling at the speed of light is that your mass becomes infinite and you slow down. According to relativity, the faster you move, the more mass you have. So, traveling at the speed of light in the conventional way is impossible.
What is the G-force at the speed of sound?
“G” is shorthand for an acceleration of approx 32 feet per second per second. The speed of sound is a velocity, roughly 1,100 feet per second. Each Mach Number is 1x the speed of sound.
Can G-force Shrink you?
Methods: The body height of 20 junior fighter pilots was measured before and after 30 min of recumbent rest and after high-G flights. A special measuring device was used. Results: Maneuvering under high +Gz forces for 40 min caused a 4.9 mm decrease in body height.
Is G-Force painful?
It’s similar to a bruise and usually dissipates within a few days. The long term effects of high-G’s can result in neck and back issues—most pilots deal with some level of general pain due to G’s. With our helmets on, over 135 pounds of force is applied to the neck at 9G’s.
What is the G-Force at 99\% the speed of light?
Besides, if you rephrased the question as 99\% the speed of light, the g force is the gravitational acceleration, so the question itself doesn’t really make sense.
How long would it take to travel to the speed of light?
If you travel at a fixed speed, then you don’t experience g forces. It is only when you are accelerating. If you could accelerate at a constant 1 g, you would approach the speed of light in about a year.
What would happen if you accelerated to 99\% of the speed light?
If you would accelerate to the 99,99\% of the speed light in just 1 second, you would experience a G-force of aprox. 30,600,000 g’s (that’s 3 million times more than enough to kill you in a couple of seconds). You would also weight 3,1 million kg (if your initial weight is 75kg). None.
What is the g-force of astronauts in space?
Astronauts normally experience a maximum g-force of around 3gs during a rocket launch. This is equivalent to three times the force of gravity humans are normally exposed to when on Earth but is survivable for the passengers. Astronauts are trained in high g-force, wear g-suits and must be correctly prepared.
