Archimedes' Number (W3)

An Archimedes number Ar (not to be confused with Archimedes' constant, p), named after the ancient Greek scientist Archimedes—used to determine the motion of fluids due to density differences—is a dimensionless number in the form:
...

Archimedes' Number
The ratio of gravitational force to viscous force which characterized the motion of liquids due to density differences.

gal (W3)

"gal": A measurement of acceleration equal to one centimeter per second per second. Galileo Galilei (1564-1642), an Italian scientist who invented the telescope and made several discoveries that led to a theory of gravity.

Conversion Acceleration: The calculator allows the conversion of the different units of measurement.

• Gal (gal):
• Inch per second squared (in/s²):
• Foot per second squared (ft/s²):
• Meter per second squared (m/s²):
• 0-60 mph in seconds:
• 0-100 km/h in seconds:

The "gal", sometimes called "galileo", (symbol "Gal") is a unit of acceleration used extensively in the science of gravimetry. The "gal" is defined as "1 centimeter per second squared" ("1 cm/s²").
...
The "gal" is named after "Galileo Galilei", a physicist who made the first measurements of the Earth’s gravity.
